The answers:
He talked down to Christoffels.
He ridiculed and called Christoffels names.
Explanation:
This is in relation to a story in the book "The Hiding Place" authored by Corrie Ten Boom. This story is a biography on Boom's life during the war in Holland.
Otto was a young German who was also a Nazist. He was as an apprentice to Boom's father, who is a watchmaker. When Otto becomes an apprentice under Boom's Father, the family realized the effect of Nazism as Otto proudly often states that he was in the Hitler Youth, and excuses himself during daily scripture reading saying the father is reading the old testament, a "book of Jews" and consists of lies.
At a point in the story, Otto started abusing Christoffel, an old man who also works at the watch shop. Christoffel was always subjected to Otto's violence such that he is being talked down to and ridiculed by him. Sometimes, Otto also trip and hit Christoffel alongside shoving him into a wall. These were some of the ways Otto persecuted and abused Christoffels.

Answer:
The answers are:
- You don't trust her/him anymore.
- You can't agree anymore never on anything.
Explanation:
Two possible examples that one can identify when there are these two relationship problems are: Constantly revising her/his cellphone secretely (while she/he is taking a shower, leaves cell phone, etc...) And constant discussions for simple or serious issues in front of other people.
What the couple can do is firstly to sit down and tell to each other what is bothering each of them, for instance, "the cellphone" problem, perhaps one of them is using the cellphone more than usual, and well if there is no communication as to say " oh honey, look, my friends sent me this funny picture" or, "omg, my boss wants me to go to work on Sunday", or "I have so much work, darling, I have to attend several messages/calls"... perhaps that could do a big difference. And with regards to the other issue, well, it's just a matter of establishing priorities, again, sit down and talk...
The correct answer is: C) You should eat corn at every meal.
An explicit message is characterized by the direct way it tells things. It leaves no room for vagueness, implication or ambiguity, going straight to the main point. When receiving an explicit message no questions are left, there are not hidden meaning or intents.
The sentece "You should eat corn at every meal.", has those characteristics, it tells you what to do, nothing more, nothing less.
The other sentences try to deliver the same message but in a vague way, they relate eating corn with possitive things like patriotism. This is more related to subliminal messages in which things are not easily perceived, the real meaning is hidden. As a result a person can do something based on the message, believing that his actions have one particular cause (e.g. eating corn to be patriotic) but actually they respond to unknown causes (e.g. the corn industry).
