Verbal

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

Electronic communications such as email, text messages, chats, and posts on the "walls" of social media sites are considered by psychologists to be "impersonal" forms of communication, meaning that the sender of the communication is distant from the receiver of the communication. This separation often results in misinterpretation by the recipient. Since such communications are also primarily one-way interactions, there is no chance for the sender of the communication to realize and correct the misinterpretation. Electronic communications should therefore be ____________.

A)Used only when face-to-face communications are not possible.

B)Written in straightforward language that is not liable to various different interpretations.

C)Used in situations where personal communications might be embarrassing.

D)Forbidden in professional occupations, such as medicine and law.

E)Used as frequently as possible, due to the convenience of avoiding lengthy conversations.
