Answer:
A) Our staid coach surprised us with a joke that was totally out of character
Explanation:
Although staid's denotative meaning is "sedate, respectable, and unadventurous," the word is often used to describe people who are stodgy or dull. If one was surprised by someone telling a joke, and calls that "out of character", then we can infer that that person was usually rather boring. Therefore, using context clues, we can infer that this is the correct use of staid.

3. During economic hardships, most people find <em><u>prodigal</u></em> spenders offensive.
Explanation:
The corresponding and appropriate vocabulary for the bolded words in the given sentences are changed as follows-
1. In replacing "grumbled about" with "deplored", they imply the same attitude but with much more strong opposition. While mere grumbling may suggest complaints and disinterest, 'deplored' gives a sense of strongly disapproving of the plan.
2. The word "stylish" can be replaced by "ornate" as they both imply the same decorative sense of the ceiling. But at the same time, "ornate" gives the sense of a more beautiful, better-decorated piece than the simple word "stylish".
3. The word "big" in describing the spenders is plain and can just describe any shopper who spends a lot. But the use of "prodigal" in describing the spenders gives the sense of unnecessary spending. This word gives more voice to the disapproving tone about such spenders.
