Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

B
The Oxford English Dictionary (1989) defines crisis as the turning point in a disease, the decisive stage in the progress of anything, a state of affairs in which change for the better or worse is imminent. The original use of the term was for a turning point in an illness. The other options could be true of a crisis, but turning point is the best definition.
