The correct answer is Group II. "When the root is a full word except for a final "e", the forms usually are spelled with -able".

Explanation:

In language, a root word refers to the basic unit of a word that cannot be reduced to a smaller unit. Because of this, new words can be formed by adding prefixes or suffixes which are letters or syllables placed before or after root words. However, in most cases, the use of suffixes and prefixes follow strict grammatical rules that work as a guide to add a prefix or suffix depending on the root word. This is the case of the suffix "-able" that means capable of and which is added to root words according to different rules described in the question which classifies root words according to eight different groups and describes in which way should the suffix "-able" added according to the features of the root word.

For the word "desire" which means  the action of wishing something, the rule that applies to this word is the one described in Group III or "When the root is a full word except for a final "e", the forms usually are spelled with -able" considering the word desire is a full word that cannot be reduced to shorter units and it also ends in "-e", therefore the suffix is added by omitting the "-e" which means the word becomes "desirable" and means  something attractive or capable of being desired. Thus, the rule that applies to the word "desire" is Group II.

Answer:

The Debate Commission declined to reschedule the second debate over President Trump's refusal to agree to a virtual debate session over fears of his co ro navirus diagnosis.

Explanation:

Right after President Donald Trump tested positive for CO VID-19, he was put on self-quarantine. But days later, the President's physician, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Se an Co nley gave him the all-clear to continue with his campaign.

The second Presidential debate that was scheduled to be held in Miami was canceled after Trump refused to do a virtual debate. The issue was because of the fears of his positive diagnosis, the Commission decided to do a virtual debate for the second debate to keep everyone safe. While Joe Biden's camp agreed to do the virtual debate, President Trump's side refused, questioning why there is the need to do it online when the President is cleared as safe.

So, the Commission was left with no option except cancel the debate instead of rescheduling it. As Kate Bedingfield, Biden's campaign spokesperson stated, <em>"Donald Trump doesn't make the debate schedule; the debate commission does." </em>
