Answer to Question 1

The Miranda warnings, which are most often read by police to an arrestee, often comprise a series of statements like this: You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You also have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided to you at no cost. Do you understand these rights as they have been read to you?

Answer to Question 2

So-called knock and talk consent searches are popular with law enforcement officers because of the difficulty of securing warrants in particular instances. The typical knock and talk scenario occurs when police officers approach someone's house, knock on the front door, and request consent to search the home.
