The two correct answers that a writer can assume about the audience for the essay prompt on the importance of registering to vote on or shortly after turning 18 are:

  1. They have a range of opinions about voting.
  2. They are mostly teenagers.

These assumptions are appropriate because the essay is aimed at encouraging young people who are about to turn 18 or are newly 18 to register, indicating that the audience likely includes many young individuals who may still be forming their opinions on voting.
