Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Genre is a category used to classify literary works, usually by form, technique, or content.
The format of a book is the overall arrangement, or the way the book is put together, involving factors such as size, shape, paper quality, colors, and content of each page.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Children develop visual literacy skills before they can read. As teachers we can encourage them to use illustrations to decode meaning from stories and enable them to begin to understand such elements as story sequences, settings, characters, and plot.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
