Answer:

C and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Accelerate...

"The words of an authority, when well-stated, carry a lot more weight than your words would. In that case, use the quotation. If it’s too long, use the most important points and condense, using ellipses to indicate missing words." (for #1)

"The style manual is not an encyclopedia or dictionary. It’s purpose is to make sure your style conforms to set standards." (for #2)
