Answer:
1. Council members <u>deplored</u> the outbreak of violence in areas close to schools.
2. Several of the old buildings still retained the <u>ornate</u> ceilings and banisters that were typical of the eighteenth century.
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.

Explanation:
As you may know, adjectives are words that modify nouns, and adverbs are words that modify verbs. When we look at the sentence, “The baby is very sleepy,” there is only one noun—“baby.” And, there is only one verb—“is.” When looking at the sentence closer, there are three adjectives—“The,” “very,” and “sleepy.” “Very” can serve as either an adverb or adjective depending on what it is modifying. In this particular case, however, because it is modifying “sleepy,” and “sleepy” is an adjective, “very,” too, is an adjective. As such, the following in bold are correct:
Adjectives Choices-
A) the
B) baby
C) very
D) sleepy
E) none in this sentence
Adverbs Choices-

B) is
C) very
D) sleepy
E) none in this sentence
Prepositional Phrases Choices-
