Answer to #1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) As a sender, make sure every message you send is meaningful and important to your receivers. As a recipient, take steps to control the number and types of messages you receive. Use the filtering features of your communication systems to isolate high-priority messages that deserve your attention. Also, be wary of following too many blogs, Twitter accounts, and social networking feeds, and other sources of recurring messages. Focus on the information you truly need to do your job.

Answer to #2

Answer: Written communication can be made more meaningful for the audience through the use of plain language and short, precise words that say exactly what is meant. Avoid words with multiple meanings. As much as possible, choose words that have only one obvious meaning in the context you're using them. For example, assess can mean to analyze a situation, but it can also mean to impose a penalty or a fee. Concepts should be clear and supported by specific terms and concrete examples. Cite numbers carefully, using figures (such as 27) instead of spelling them out (twenty-seven). Avoid slang and be careful with technical jargon and abbreviations. Slang and other nonstandard usages can be difficult or impossible for your audience to translate. Be brief. Construct sentences that are short and simple and use short paragraphs. Each paragraph should stick to one topic. Use transitions generously. Help readers follow your train of thought.

Answer to #4

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Even the best technologies can hinder communication if they are overused. Speaking with people over the phone or in person can take more time and effort, and can sometimes force you to confront unpleasant situations directly, but it is often essential for solving tough problems and maintaining productive relationships.
