Answer: Because the end of the word occur is <u>consonant</u> + <u>vowel</u> + <u>consonant</u>.

Explanation:

When a word ends in <em>consonant</em> + <em>vowel</em> + <em>consonant</em>, we double the last consonant before adding a suffix.

Answer:

because the stress is on the second syllable of the base word ending in consonant + vowel + consonant

Explanation:

If a multiple-syllable word ends in a single consonant preceded by a single vowel and the accent is on the last syllable of the root word, double the final consonant before a suffix beginning with a vowel.

e.g.  refer – referred, occur – occurrence, commit – committal, rebel  –  rebellion.

Answer:

Dear Brother Rahul,

I've learned that you're in poor company these days. All of your buddies are spoiled, wealthy people's sons. I've also heard that you skip classes and return to the hostel late at night. It's alarming to learn that your pals are notorious bad boys with a variety of terrible behaviors.

This is a major source of anxiety for the whole family. The father seems to be cool, while the mother cannot disguise her feelings. She often weeps as a result of the complaints about your behavior.

Explanation:

You did a great job! I only tweaked the grammar a bit.
