Answer to Question 1

Couples who compromise communicate openly, listen carefully, and try to understand their partner's point of view.

Answer to Question 2

D
This is the second stage of grieving, in which the person longs for the deceased and feels overwhelmed by the loss. Denial is the first stage of grieving, when the person is in shock and rejects the loss of another; depression and identification is the third stage of grieving, characterized by depressed feelings followed by a period of sharing memories and seeking support from others; and acceptance and recovery is the phase of the grieving process during which individuals begin to focus their energies toward the living and their lives begin to stabilize.
