Fill in the Blanks

"You" is a plural pronoun and we use "have" with plural nouns and pronouns.

We use "at" for skills e.g. painting, driving, swimming etc.

"Neither" is followed by "nor".

"Metal" is a common noun, so 'a' will be used here.

I usually go to school by bus. (we use 'by' to refer to a medium of transport e.g. by car, by bus, by bike etc.)

The sentence implies one out of many. So, 'friends' is the correct answer.

"As" means "in the role, function or status of". It fits well here.

Sullen means showing irritation, bad temper, or sulking - exactly how a spoiled child behaves when not receiving attention. Discreet means being careful, suspicious means distrustful, and tranquil means calm - none of which fit this context.

To 'deliver on' promises means to fulfill or carry out what was promised. The sentence implies he made grand promises but failed to fulfill them, which is why confidence was lost. 'Forgot about' and 'retreated from' don't capture the sense of obligation.

Transparent means allowing light to pass through so objects behind can be clearly seen - exactly what's being described. The comparison to a clear window pane makes it clear that transparency is the key quality. Fragile means breakable, immaculate means perfectly clean, and iridescent means showing rainbow colors.

To belie means to give a false impression or contradict. His voting record contradicted (gave the lie to) his stated friendship with peasants. Implied and created would mean the voting record supported the false impression. Confirmed would mean it proved true, which is the opposite of what's needed.

Case of correlative conjunction. 'Both' is used with the conjunction 'and'.

Case of subordinative conjunction. 'Unless' means 'if not, except when'. Hence, option 4 is correct.

Case of correlative conjunctions. 'Neither' and 'nor' are correlatives.
