Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) A heading is a brief title that tells readers about the content of the section that follows. They show readers at a glance how the material is organized, they call attention to important points, and they highlight connections and transitions between ideas.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Use one-sentence paragraphs only occasionally and only for emphasis. Also, if you need to divide a subject into several pieces in order to keep paragraphs short, use transitions to help your readers keep the ideas connected. Too many one-sentence paragraphs look choppy and incomplete. One-sentence paragraphs are different than lists.
