Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

When used effectively, humor serves as a bond between the speaker and the audience. However, humor is inappropriate if the topic is very serious or has negative consequences for the audience. The humor must be appropriate to the situation and must be in good taste. It is never appropriate to tell an off-color or sexist joke, to use offensive language, or to make fun of an ethnic group. Humor is most effective when it surprises the audience and when the speaker can laugh at himself or herself.
