Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) Jessica is idealistic, impractical, and very imaginative. She has an artistic personality and would prefer ambiguous and unsystematic activities that allow creative expression such as writing.

Answer to Question 2

A
Explanation: A) Though it might seem desirable to regulate your emotions, research suggests that changing your emotions takes effort, and this effort can be exhausting. Sometimes attempts to change an emotion actually make the emotion stronger by making you focus more on what scares you. Also, emotion suppression appears to be especially difficult to do effectively and can lead to more negative emotions.
