Answer:

Euphemisms are substitutes for crude, hurtful, or otherwise offensive expressions. Euphemisms manipulate the meaning of a word or phrase to make them appear more pleasant. Because the purpose of euphemism is to disguise semantics and avoid saying what is meant, it has been called "the language of evasion, hypocrisy, prudery, and deceit,"

Explanation

as an example: For nearly all actors it begins at the end of the audition with four words from the auditor, "Thanks for coming in." . . . "Thanks for coming in" is a polite entertainment euphemism for "You suck. Was that the best you could do?"

The error is in the last word.

Every day, on the other hand is a phrase that means "each day" or "all days" depending on the context.

The SMCR model suggests that problems in communication can arise when a sender and a receiver have different A. body language. B
AleksAgata [21]

That's right, the correct answer is C.

The Sender-Message-Channel-Receiver (SMCR) model identifies individual components of a communication act, which in turn are affected by diverse factors that combined can result in a more or less efficient communication. The four components are sender, message, channel and receiver.

People from different cultures may understand the same message differently. Things can be accepted in one culture and considered very offensive in another. Therefore is important that communication is performed between a sender and a receiver who have the same cultural background or who have an understading on how to deal with the cultural background of the  other interlocutor, in case it is not the own one.
