Answer to Question 1

With passive listening, listeners concentrate at a low level and absorb just enough of what
they are hearing to stay involved in the message. With active listening, listeners concentrate at
a high level on what is being said and participate mentally in the conversation. Passive
listening is appropriate when you are listening for pleasure or when it does not matter whether
or not you retain what you are hearing. Active listening is appropriate when you must
remember what you are hearing, such as in school or in the workplace.

Answer to Question 2

Retention
But even more important than reading speed are comprehension (understanding) and
retention (remembering). Many of the suggestions made for increasing reading speed also
contribute to greater comprehension.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
