Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Evaluate your organization, style, and tone, making sure that you've said what you wanted to say in the most logical order and in a way that responds to your audience's needs. Then, improve the report's readability by varying sentence length, shortening paragraphs, using lists and bullets, adding headings and subheadings, and making generous use of transitions. Keep revising the content until it is clear, concise, and compelling.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Tight, efficient writing that's easy to skim is always a plus, but it's especially important for impatient online audiences. Review the content of an online report carefully; take out all information that doesn't directly meet audience needs, and condense everything else as much as possible.
