Answer 1

Before a writer begins writing, they should know the following two elements:

1. Audience - Understanding who the writing is for helps tailor the message, tone, and content to effectively communicate with readers.

2. Purpose - Identifying the reason for writing (to inform, persuade, entertain, etc.) guides the direction and style of the writing.

So the correct answers are audience and purpose.
