Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

There are several approaches for improving response rates, including making the data collection instrument and procedure as interesting and as short as possible, carefully choosing and training interviewers, asking respondents to complete a short task before asking them to complete the longer data collection instrument (the foot-in-the-door technique), guaranteeing confidentiality and/or anonymity, notifying potential respondents in advance, personalizing data collection forms as much as possible, providing incentives, disguising the sponsor if necessary, and sending follow-up surveys.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
