B、disclosure of conflicts.
C、independence and objectivity

【Answer to question 1】A
【analysis】
A is correct because the utility is not a suitable investment for a fund that only invests in companies with good environmental records.Continuing to hold this investment,therefore,was a violation of Standard III(C)–Suitability.
B is incorrect because the violation concerns an unsuitable investment.Although the manager has a conflict of interest concerning her desire to hold onto a high dividend stock that has performed well in the past despite it being unsuitable for the Fund,disclosing this would not alleviate the fact that the holding is unsuitable for the Fund that only investments in companies with good environmental records.
C is incorrect because there has not been a violation of independence and objectivity
