Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Sometimes not reacting to the situation can calm the person down. Always present a caring atti-tude, not a threatening one. The other options are incorrect because they may cause the situation to escalate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
People under the influence of drugs or alcohol are more likely to be volatile and unpredictable. The other options are incorrect because these people are not as likely to present a problem.
