I believe the correct answer is - <span>a) The teen pop star was infamous for wild parties and driving under the influence of alcohol. 
Infamous means to be well known for something bad: in A, the celebrity is famous because of his/her wild lifestyle. B is incorrect because you can put off a fire by doing that, and not kindle it. C is incorrect because couplets consist of two lines, not four (that would be a quatrain). D is incorrect because deceitful would mean that she cheated somebody, when in fact, she felt delightful about her score.</span>

ikadub [295]

Answer:

The correct sentence is:

3. He tried to affect our vote.

Explanation:

The sentences we are analyzing here are testing our knowledge of words that sound similar but have different meanings, or words that have close meanings with small differences.

For the first sentence, the verb should be "lay" instead of "lie". "Lie" is an intransitive verb, which means it does not act upon an object. "Lay", however, needs an object. We lay something. The sentence should be: Please lay this book on the table.

The second sentence confuses "except" with "accept". Just keep in mind that "except" is related to "exception", which means to exclude something. The sentence should be: Please accept my apology.

The third sentence is correct. We must use "affect", which is a verb. Some people confuse it for "effect", which is a noun.

Finally, the fourth sentence uses "set" instead of "sit", but the two verbs have completely different meanings. From the context, we can tell "sit" is the best option. The person wants to sit down to rest.
