Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Practice ensures that the interviewee has thought through what responses would be best and will be able to respond in an articulate, sincere fashion. Spontaneity does not always work well; it may not provide appropriate information. Conservative business attire is best. Use the individual's surname unless invited to do otherwise.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
This method will ensure that the person receiving the cover letter has ready access to the rsum. Not all systems can open attachments. It is not inappropriate to use electronic transmission in this instance. Many employers prefer e-inquiries. It is not necessary to phone first to find out whether the person hiring is computer literate.

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
