Answer to Question 1

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: There is no hard and fast rule that recommendations must appear at either the beginning (direct) or end (indirect) of a report. Some writers state recommendations as they go along, combining both direct and indirect approaches.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: The direct approach is the simplest and most efficient way to convey information. As a rule, the indirect approach is used only for skeptical or hostile audiences, or for writers who lack the status to state their conclusions openly and without explanation.
