Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) In a positive message, express your main idea in the introduction. Fully explain your point by providing relevant details, explanations, or considerations in the body of the message.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) A favorable context should not mislead or obfuscate. Simply express the negative news in the most positive possible manner.
