Question
i.   Discuss in detail all the important features which are basically required for good documents.
ii.   What is the importance of Readers while writing a document?


Answer
You have asked four questions that are obviously part of a take-home examination of some sort. I can help with such problems, but do not, on a volunteer basis, simply answer the questions for you. For one thing, the answers to such questions may vary considerably depending on the texts and other materials used in the class and by this particular instructor. I might very well give you an incorrect set of answers.
