Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually "to fake."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that one of the meanings of the verb to affect is to feign, which can be translated as to pretend or to give a false appearance of something. If the character was trying to "conceal certain inconvenient emotions" which, nevertheless, "seemed inclined to assert themselves" by affecting high spirits, he was, therefore, faking those high spirits, in order to hide his true feelings from the people who had just arrived.

Incomplete question. However, I infer you are referring to the book The Tempest.

Explanation:

a. Clear evidence is shown in the fact that his brother Prospero was becoming more interested in studying than in fulfilling his duty as Duke.
