Answer 1

1. D 2. B 3. D 4. B 5. D 6. D

Answer 2

1. D) acting out how to handle a potentially embarrassing situation such as dropping a tray on a customer.

2. A) a spreadsheet.

3. B) The news source's coverage would have bias whether intentional or not.

4. For example

5. D) I am seeking employment that will allow me to explore my horticulture interests.

6. D) Archaeologists complete detailed procedures in the laboratory to scrutinize collected objects.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In this example, options A to C are negative or demotivating. Option D is the only one that will prove useful to the staff.

2. A spreadsheet is the document that would help Darcie the most. Spreadsheets are often used when recording transactions. It is also particularly useful for transactions that need to be reported regularly.

3. News coverage are always biased, whether they try to avoid it or not. This is because the organizations that report have their own prejudices and assumptions that translate to the coverage. Therefore, this would be the main difference between the news source's coverage and the speech transcript.

4. The right word to employ is "for example," because the following statement illustrates the claim.

5. This is the best way to change the tone from this sentence from informal to formal. The revision avoids the use of contractions, expresses clearer ideas and employs more complex words.

6. This is the answer that provides the least amount of evidence. In your original claim, the two reasons given were to work outside and to travel. However, option D does not mention either one of these passions.
