Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Sometimes a negative message contains both good news and bad news. In that case, stating the good news in the opening buffer starts the message on a more favorable note.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Messages using the indirect approach open with a buffer, a neutral, noncontroversial statement that is closely related to the point of the message but doesn't convey the bad news.

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.
