Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Every attempt to send and receive messages is influenced by culture, so to communicate successfully, you need a basic grasp of the cultural differences you may encounter and how you should handle them.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Intercultural communication is much more complicated than simply matching language between sender and receiver - it goes beyond mere words to beliefs, values, and emotions. Do not assume that others will act the same way you do, use language and symbols the same way you do, or even operate from the same values and beliefs. Genetics, environments, and media do not cause difficulties in communication. People in different cultures have different views and frequently different core values.
