Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
One of the three ways people are oriented is destiny, in which people must endure and accept whatever comes in a fatalistic, inevitable manner, as destiny cannot be changed. The other responses do not address the perspective of destiny that has been indicated by the client in the initial response.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
People respond to acute crises with dramatic media coverage (such as hurricanes or earthquakes), but ongoing consistent pressure is needed to ensure day-to-day environmental integrity. Chronic environmental problems are rarely addressed effectively.
