Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

Discourse involves units of language larger than individual sentencesin conversations, lectures, stories, essays, and even textbooks. Just as grammatical sentences are structured according to systematic syntactical rules, passages of discourse are structured systematically. By adulthood, most of us have a firm grasp of how sentences are sequenced into a greater whole (discourse structure). From our knowledge of discourse structure, we can derive meanings of sentence elements that are not apparent by looking at isolated sentences.
