Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Defining potentially unfamiliar terms at the beginning of a report ensures that readers will understand the body and closing of the report. Defining such terms later on risks alienating or confusing readers who may not be familiar with the terms.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) The body of your report presents, analyzes, and interprets the information you gathered during your investigation. It should contain only enough information to convey your message in a convincing fashion; don't overload readers with interesting but unnecessary material.
