Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Consider whether you have achieved the right tone for your audience. Your writing should be formal enough to meet the audience's expectations without being too formal or academic. Consider whether it is too casual for a serious subject.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Before you dive into someone else's work, recognize the dual responsibility that you have. First, unless you've specifically been asked to rewrite something in your own style, keep in mind that your job is to help the other writer succeed at his or her task, not to impose your writing style.
