Answer to Question 1

B
The language you use in business should always be gender-neutral. Gender-neutral words
are those that do not indicate maleness or femaleness.

Answer to Question 2

D
Gender-specific words indicate whether a subject is male or female. Such gender-bias words
show favoritism toward or imply a greater importance of one gender over another. Instead, use
gender-neutral words that do not indicate maleness or femaleness. Supervisor is a genderneutral word.
