Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) By definition the primary audience is the direct recipient of your message, while the secondary audience is anyone else who may receive a copy of it or hear about it, either from you or from the primary audience.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Persuasion involves influencing a recipient to agree with an idea or take action. If you can show your boss the research that documents increased productivity in the workplace resulting from a flex-time schedule, she might be convinced to implement it. The other choices do less to show your boss why this idea is a good idea from his or her point of view. While knowing the interest level in the office is relevant, if you cannot show your boss that the idea is desirable from his or her perspective, you will find it difficult to convince the boss.
