Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

In the first sentence, 'lose' (to fail to win or to misplace) is the correct verb form, not 'loose' (which means not tight or free). In the second sentence, 'route' (a way or course taken) is the correct term for a path, not 'root' (the part of a plant underground). The pattern BB is correct because both sentences need the second word option.
