Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Making a list of questions about material that is not understood is an action that shows active student participation. Lecture-discussion sessions expect students to be self-directed in learning. Avoiding actively disagreeing with the instructor or other students and listening until called upon to answer questions are more passive than active behaviors. Using review books to check the depth of the material is beyond the scope of what's expected from a student and would not be productive.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Because it is not possible to replace the classroom experience, the only acceptable reason for missing class is an emergency, a crisis, or an illness. The remaining options each describe events that could be scheduled to avoid conflicts with class.
