Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Write effective links that serve for both site navigation and content skimming. Above all, clearly identify where a link will take readers. Don't resort to cute wordplay that obscures the content, and don't force readers to click through and try to figure out where they're going.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Present your information in a concise, skimmable format. Effective websites use a variety of means to help readers skim pages quickly, including lists, use of color and boldface, informative headings, and helpful summaries that give readers the option of learning more if they choose to do so.
