Answer to Question 1

TRUE
If you have a general idea of the meaning you want to convey, the thesaurus will give you a
choice of specific words to express it. Look up the general idea, then choose the word or
expression that best fits your meaning.

Answer to Question 2

On envelopes, space restrictions sometimes make the use of St. and Ave. necessary. In
letters, however (and on envelopes whenever possible), avoid abbreviating the words Street,
Avenue, and so on. When abbreviations such as NW, SW, and NE appear after street
names, use a comma to separate the street name from the abbreviation. The words Post
Office may or may not be abbreviated with box numbers. The U.S. Postal Service now
requires that addresses be updated from the old rural-style addresses to city-style addresses.
Except for the abbreviation St. in city names such as St. Louis and St. Paul, do not
abbreviate city names. With inside addresses or correspondence, use either (1) the two-letter
abbreviations of state names or (2) the spelled-out name. The U.S. Postal Service prefers the
two-letter state abbreviations on envelopes.
