Essay:  When you choose to be assertive, you won't always get everything you want. With that in mind, why should you still choose to communicate assertively? Provide two reasons.
Student Answer:  Because being passive can hinder you making any progress socially in a conversation, and being aggressive is more so demanding than being passive but still not helpful in a situation.
