Answer to Question 1

B
It is important to maintain an unemotional tone of voice when dealing with a hostile client. The client might misinterpret touch and become violent.

Answer to Question 2

C
Reflecting back to the client empathy about the client's distress promotes a trusting relationship and may prevent the client's anxiety from escalating when limits are set.
