C. Double-meaning pun
In this pun, the word grave has a double meaning. It can refer to either the situation being serious or the hole in which the dead are buried. Both relate to the situation and therefore makes this a double meaning pun.
The answer for your question is B: Formal
1 : Heard
2 : Ran
3 : Sold
4 : Shown.
Reason's? :
For question one, heared is not a word. If it is, it is not the correct answer for question one. Heam means womb, and they are certainly not talking about wombs.
Question two may be a little trickier. If you just use this sentence, 'She's (blank) all the way from the bus terminal', it's easier. Try saying the words out loud and see which sound right and which don't sound right. Runnen is not a word, run would be good in this sentence, but since they're using 'She's' instead of 'She', ran is the correct answer.
You can continue to use the helpful tip to read the sentences out loud and canceling out the words that don't sound correct.
If you are confused on an answer and think the question isn't correct, I will try doing research to see what I've gotten wrong, or will explain more on the answer.
Have a nice day!

There are many themes in the novel Scarlet Letter, written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, and certainly the most important of them is the concept of sin and how it should be treated. As you already know, the heroine of this novel is Hester Prynne, who cheated on her husband and was thus condemned by the whole society, which didn't want to forgive her. Another theme is love, primarily between Hester and the priest, but also between Hester and her child. The position of women in society is another theme.
