Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Like touch, time and space can be used to assert authority, imply intimacy, and send other nonverbal messages. For instance, some people try to demonstrate their own importance or disregard for others by making other people wait; others show respect by being on time. Expectations and interpretation regarding time vary by culture, or whoever is in the group meeting.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Paying special attention to nonverbal signals in the workplace will enhance your ability to communicate successfully. Moreover, as you work with a diverse range of people in the global marketplace, you'll also need to grasp the different meanings of common gestures, expressions, and other signals in various cultures.
