Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) The fewer characters you use, the easier it is for your followers to retweet the message, especially if they prefer to use the classic method of retweeting, which is to add RT and senders-username to the beginning of a retweeted message. If you leave sufficient space, the users may even add their own blurb or endorsement to your tweet when they retweet it to their followers.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) By asking questions and responding to them in a timely fashion, you also show users that you value their input, making them feel like respected contributors rather than faceless fans.
