Answer to Question 1

3
Information must be presented at the client's level of understanding in order to be under-stood.

Answer to Question 2

D
The rock concert riot is unplanned, violent, traumatizing, and not a part of everyday life. The death of a child and being fired are examples of situational crises. Retirement is an example of a maturational crisis.
