Answer to Question 1

a. Clichs are expressions that are monotonous because they have been overused. Writers avoid clichs because they lack freshness and originality.
b. Slang is informal language used within a particular geographic region, demographic group, or culture. Business writers avoid slang because it is not very professional, is short-lived, and might confuse a reader.
c. Buzzwords are important-sounding expressions that people use to try to impress others. Business writers avoid these phrases because buzzwords are typically vague, short-lived, and lack originality.
