Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Asian Americans comprise 3.6 percent of the U.S. population. People designated as Asian Americans include a wide variety of races, ethnic groups, and nationalities including people of Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Pakistani descent. Asian Americans are well represented in technical fields, but despite high educational achievements, they are severely underrepresented in managerial positions and seldom make it to the upper echelons. Asian Americans have been held back by the stereotype that they are too reserved to lead others and that they have limited verbal skills. Other views of Asian Americans as hardworking and deferential can end up relegating them to roles as corporate workhorses  not leaders  and keep them segregated in technical areas. They are also subject to bigotry and the stereotype as unscrupulous, crafty, and devious in business. They are often seen as forever foreigners as a result of their personal appearance. The perception that Asian Americans are already successful paradoxically makes some managers insensitive to their needs and problems.
