Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Justice means treating people equally and fairly. Equals should be treated equally, and unequals should be treated according to their differences. Allocation of holidays, vacation time, and days off to attend conferences should reflect performance as well as who is next on the list.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Negative attitudes, self-censorship, inflexibility, lack of confidence, misconceptions, lack of effort, habits, conformity, and reliance on authority all block creativity.
