Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Managers who take frequent walk-arounds are using oral, in-person communication to chat with employees face-to-face  getting their input, answering questions, and interpreting business events and trends.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) A high-context culture depends on the richness of oral communication to provide clues to build relationships. Oral communication, especially face-to-face oral communication is ideal for high-context cultures that build a web of meaning around the words that they say. Written communication, in contrast, leaves very little room for nuance or interpretation and is a very poor choice for a high-context culture.
