Answer to Question 1

ask open-ended questions

Rationale: It is important to ask open-ended questions rather than yes/no questions in order to obtain more information about a candidate. It is also a good idea to set the applicant at ease by explaining the agenda of the interview. It is illegal to ask about marital status or children.

Answer to Question 2

94 mmHg

Rationale: 94 mmHg would be considered abnormally high, whereas the others are within normal range.
