Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) As you write your first draft, let your creativity flow. Don't try to write and edit at the same time or worry about getting everything perfect. The introduction is often the hardest part to write, so put it aside and work on whichever parts of the document you're most comfortable with.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Choose words that express your thoughts clearly, specifically, and dynamically. If you find yourself using a lot of adjectives and adverbs, you're probably trying to compensate for weak nouns and verbs.
