Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) The scope of your message is the range of information you present, the overall length, and the level of detailall of which need to correspond to your main idea. The length of some business messages has a preset limit, whether from a boss's instructions, the technology you're using, or a time frame such as individual speaker slots during a seminar. However, even if you don't have a preset length, limit your scope to the minimum amount of information needed to convey your main idea.
