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.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
