Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) A more formal tone is appropriate for longer reports, especially those that deal with controversial or complex information. You also need a more formal tone when your report will be sent to other parts of the organization or to outsiders, such as customers, suppliers, or members of the community.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Preview sections introduce important or complex topics by helping readers get ready for new information. Review sections come after a body of material and summarize key points to help readers absorb the information just read.
