Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Editing for conciseness involves deleting unnecessary words and phrases, shortening long words and phrases, eliminating redundancies, and rewriting sentences that start with it is or there are.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Readability indexes offer a useful reference point, but they are limited by what they are able to measure: word length, number of syllables, sentence length, and paragraph length. They can't measure any of the other factors that affect readability, such as document design, the you attitude, clear sentence structure, smooth transitions, and proper word usage.
