e. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

A. In activities and the award in honors

Explanation:

Competition basically composed of varying activities among interested participants. The outcome of such produces some ranking of sorts as to how the participants faired in the activities. However, not all competition produces or confers honors and/or awards. But it can be established that competition involves varying activities.

Honors and awards go hands in hands - as they are recognition of an outstanding display in a class of participants.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": And award as separate items in Honors.

Explanation:

While elaborating on a resume, all relevant information about the academic and professional background of the applicant must be included. This, considering the resume as a maximum should be two-pages long. In addition to the mention before, sections such as Languages, Diplomas, and Honors must be listed to attract the recruiter's attention.

If an individual obtained a national scholarship for winning a writing contest, that is a good indicator of his or her academic skills, thus, competition and award should be listed separately in the Honors section: one item for the writing contest and other for the scholarship.
