Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Answer to Question 2

Apologia is the speech of self-defense, used when an individual or organization responds to criticism
from others. It is not necessarily an apology, although it may contain one. William Benoit identified

offensiveness of the act, promise to take corrective action, and mortification-an admission of
responsibility and the seeking of forgiveness.
