It is better to define these words:

<em>Affect </em>means to have an effect on something or make a difference.

<em>Effect </em>is to cause something to happen.

<em>Afflict </em>is to cause pain or suffering.

<em>Effectuate </em>means to put into force.


<em>Compromise</em>: to settle a dispute.

<em>Compress </em>means to press something together.

<em>Commissive </em>is to assign someone to the power.

<em>Comprehensive</em>: Of or relating to every aspect of something.

According to the definitions, the correct answer pair is effected (with correct grammatical rule) and comprehensive.

Answer:

Effected, comprehensive.

Explanation:

Worsley produced several safety-pins from some corner of his garments and <u>effected</u> some temporary repairs that really emphasized his general disrepair. Down we hurried, and when quite close to the station we met two small boys ten or twelve years of age. I asked these lads where the manager’s house was situated. They did not answer. They gave us one look—a <u>comprehensive </u>look that did not need to be repeated. Then they ran from us as fast as their legs would carry them.

The first word "effected" signifies the actual action of doing something, bringing about a change in something. While the second word "comprehensive" means the inclusion of everything, the complete 'package', a large scope. So, with the first word, we can know that he actually used the safety pins to alter make repairs. The next word shows that the look that the small boys gave them is a complete look that needs no further explanation. It's like their look says it all.

This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

On Monday morning, Adam woke up with the sniffles and his throat hurt.

He had to stay home from school. This made him very sad because he had never missed school before. He was proud of his perfect record. Now, it would not be perfect anymore.

    Adam's mother came to his room and brought him some hot soup. She saw that he was upset. "Adam," she said, "everyone gets sick sometimes. You need to rest so your cold will get better soon."

    Adam sighed and ate his soup. Then he took a long nap. Later that week, Adam started feeling stronger again. On Thursday, his parents let him go back to school. All the kids asked him how he was. He felt happy to know he had been missed.

How does the setting change by the end of the passage?

   A. Adam walks to the mall.

   B. Adam goes back to school.

   C. Adam sits in his kitchen.

   D. Adam goes outside to play.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. Adam goes back to school.

Explanation:

The setting is the time and place in which a story occurs. It can be descriptive or it can contain certain data about it.

In this case we have two scenarios. The initial setting is Adam's house, where he had to stay because he was sick. And at the end of the passage this scenario changes to the school, where he returns because he has already recovered.
