Answer to Question 1

Answer: Based on information from the text, it would not be very effective to use threats to resolve the conflict. In fact, the evidence suggests that if anything, using threats would escalate the conflict, and the situation would become more hostile. In using communication with the neighbor, be sure not to use threats, but instead to start promoting trust between the two of us. Once each trusts that the other wouldn't be blasting music at inappropriate hours, the first steps will have been taken to resolve the conflict.
