Answer 1

1. According to the first question the correct choise is the option D. Semantic Noise. Because in communication there are some types of noise that hinder the transmission and reception of the message and one of them is the semantic noise that consists of the person speaking using a complex and technical language that is not understood by the person receiving the message.

2. Preparing a speech implies having clarity about the facts that are going to be mentioned, it also means selecting the correct words to express the ideas in the most understandable way possible avoiding confusing the audience. You must set an objective that you want to reach with the discourse and be self-critical to evaluate and identify possible errors in the context, in the use of the corresponding semantics and in the clarity of the discourse objective. This is why the correct option is B. Evaluating.

3. The channel is the means by which the message is transmitted in a communication. The channel can be personal or massive. The personal channel is the voice to voice and the mass channels are written, radio, television or the internet. According to the above, the correct answer is option C.

Answer 2

1-D, because the content of the words (=meaning of the words) hinder the understanding of the talk.

2- B, evaluate means to measure the quality of something, in this case, you want to see how good your speech is by eliminating contradictions, logical flaws, words that can cause ambiguity and etc.

3- A, a feedback happens when the received piece of information generated by someone (let's call thissomeone who generates the first piece of information A ) is used as input to generate another piece of information from the recereiver (let's call the receiver B) which in turn can again be used as input to create another answer.

A -----------------------> B

^ v

|<--------------------------|

This scheme means: Information comes from A to B and then there is an answer from B which returns to A which can generate another answer to B and the cycle can go on until one part decides to finish it.
