Answer to Question 1

b)

Answer to Question 2

In low-context cultures like the United States and most northern European countries, messages are
typically quite direct and language is very specific. Speakers say exactly what they mean, and the verbal
messages are very explicit, with lots of details provided. In low-context cultures, what the speaker intends
the message to mean is not heavily influenced by the setting or context; rather, it is embedded in the
verbal message.
