A Correct answer
Explanation

In the first sentence, 'boar' (a type of wild pig) is the correct animal, not 'bore' (past tense of bear or to make holes). In the second sentence, 'dew' (tiny drops of water that form on cool surfaces at night) is what collects on grass, not 'due' (which means owed or expected). The pattern AA is correct because both sentences need the first word option.
