Answer to Question 1

Answer: Proofreading is important because it is your last chance to make sure that your document is ready to carry your message  and your reputation  to the intended audience. When proofreading, you should check the document for errors from the writing, design, and layout stages, and mistakes that crept in during production. More specifically, you should be on the lookout for writing errors (such as typographical mistakes and misspelled words), missing elements (text sections and visual aids), and design and formatting errors (such as incorrect font selections and page numbers).

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Concentrate, block out distractions, and focus as completely as possible on your proofreading task.
