To maintain a formal style, the two correct answers are:

C. Use more complex syntax
D. Use more advanced vocabulary

Using complex syntax and advanced vocabulary contributes to a more formal tone, while the other options (slang, personal pronouns, and contractions) tend to create a more informal style.
