Answer to Question 1

B
Circumstantiality is a speech pattern in which the client describes in too much detail and cannot be selective. Echolalia is repeating the last word heard, neologism is the coining of new words or expressions and perseveration is the repeating of a single activity and the inability to shift from one topic to another.

Answer to Question 2

C
The organizer keeps the group on task and organized in its work.
