Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Brevity means that communication is simple, brief, and direct. Slipping a little is not an example of using brevity.
B Relevance means that the message is relevant or important to the situation at hand. Slipping a little is not an example of using relevance.
C Pacing and control means speaking slowly enough to enunciate clearly and not changing subjects rapidly. Saying that a patient is slipping a little is not an example of using pacing and control.
D The connotative meaning is the shade or interpretation of a word's meaning influenced by the thoughts, feelings, or ideas people have about the word. Slipping a little in reference to hemodynamic pressures is an example of using connotative meaning.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
