Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) With content listening, the listener's primary focus is simply in comprehending what the speaker is saying. Content listening should be the default listening mode for most situations. Once the listener has a strong grasp of the speaker's basic message, he or she can move on to higher forms of listening, such as critical listening or empathic listening.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Effective listeners practice active listening by making a conscious effort to turn off their own filters and biases to truly hear and understand what another party is saying.
