The correct option is C speaker

Orator means a public speaker, especially one who is eloquent or skilled. This makes us understand that speaker is the right alternative.
If we look into the other alternatives,
critic means a person who expresses an unfavourable opinion of something
debater means a person who argues about a subject, especially in a formal manner
singer means a person who sings, especially professionally
Option D is correct
