Answer to Question 1

C
A form of business etiquette involves acknowledging invitations for various events. If the
invitation includes an RSVP notation, which is an abbreviation of a French phrase meaning
Please reply, a reply by phone or in writing is required.

Answer to Question 2

B
Professional courtesy, also known as business etiquette, is simply using good manners and
appropriate behavior in business transactions and written and verbal communication.
Surprising your boss by arriving at his home, even though you did not confirm your attendance
through RSVP is an example of poor business etiquette.
