Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: A report that focuses on recommendations is the most direct kind of report. It states its remedy for the situation right up front, trusting that its audience will find the recommendations credible. This approach works well as long as the audience has faith in the person writing the report.

Answer: D
Explanation: D) You do not have to cite a source for general knowledge (common knowledge) that's shared among your readers, such as the fact that Facebook is a large online social network.
