D. Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well.
This is the best choice. Process of elimination helps when answering this question. From this excerpt, we don't have any clues that the father is possessed or says insane things. We also cannot infer that the woman knitting indicates that the character don't have good clothes to wear. During this time period many women would knit in the evening. We also can't infer that the son is not old enough to play chess. There is nothing to indicate the age of the son or that he doesn't know the rules.
The correct answer is C. Do or make
Explanation:
In language, a root word or basic word refers to a word that is used as the base to create more words usually by adding other syllables or letters before or after the rood word which are called prefixes or suffixes. In the case of the root word "fec" this word derives from Latin and means to do or to make. For example in the words "affect" that means to do something to someone or the word "perfect" that describe something that is thoroughly or completely done/ make. Therefore, the meaning of the root word "fec" is to do or make.
