Answer to Question 1

The you attitude emphasizes what the reader wants and needs to know, and the effect of the message on the reader. To project the you attitude, a writer must have empathy for the reader, avoid selfish statements, and focus on reader viewpoints and benefits. If no direct benefits apply to the reader, the writer should at least point out a third-party benefit.

Answer to Question 2
