To find the correct answers to both questions, you can analyze the statements given and eliminate the options that are clearly incorrect.

For Question 1:
A. The statement suggests that AA recognizes abstinence as the most effective approach for alcoholics, which aligns with their principles of sobriety. So, this could be a possible correct answer.
B. This statement correctly states that AA was founded by two men who were alcoholics. So, this could be a possible correct answer.
C. The statement suggests that AA can be quite costly to participants. However, AA operates on a tradition of being self-supporting and not accepting outside funding. Therefore, this statement is not true.
D. The statement suggests that none of the above options are correct. Since options A and B are both correct, this cannot be the correct answer.

By analyzing the statements, we can see that options A and B are both possible correct answers. Therefore, the correct answer to Question 1 is either A or B, depending on the intended meaning of the statement.

For Question 2:
A. The statement correctly states that TC has adopted some concepts from Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). So, this could be a possible correct answer.
B. The statement correctly states that TC is a self-help, drug-free treatment program. So, this could be a possible correct answer.
C. The statement correctly states that TC provides a highly structured environment that offers little time for idleness or boredom. So, this could be a possible correct answer.
D. The statement suggests that TC is a non-residential treatment program. However, TC typically involves a residential component where participants live in a supportive community setting. Therefore, this statement is not true.

By analyzing the statements, we can see that options A, B, and C are all correct statements. Therefore, the correct answer to Question 2 is D, as it is the only incorrect statement among the options.
