Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) If your communication is purely informative, no persuasion is necessary. This choice is not just informative, so persuasion will likely be required.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) The desired outcome of a message is what you actually want your audience to do as a result of the communication. If there is a problem with the current procedure of dismissal, your desired outcome is that parents will follow the new procedure which you have implemented to address the issue. The other choices are less relevant or less specific than this outcome.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
