One of requires a plural noun because it means one person from a group. Friends is the only plural option. One of my friends is grammatically correct. Friend, best friend, and good friend are all singular.

Hair can be treated as a collective singular noun meaning hairstyle or hair mass, so was tied agrees with singular hair. Were tied would need hairs (individual strands). Is tied creates tense mismatch with fashionable implying description. Was tide is a spelling error.

Every one means each individual person when each person is emphasized. Every one of you stresses each individual. Everyone and everybody are interchangeable compound words. All doesn't capture the individual emphasis the idiom requires.

To solve this question, the user needs to have knowledge of grammar rules and be able to identify the correct verb tense and spelling for the sentence.

The correct answer is:

A. advised, canvass

Option A is the correct answer because "advised" is the correct past tense form of "advise," which means to give advice or to recommend. "Canvass" means to solicit votes or opinions, which is the intended action in the sentence. Therefore, "advised" and "canvass" are the appropriate verb forms to use in the sentence.

Option B is incorrect because "adviced" is not a word in the English language. The correct spelling is "advised."

Option C is incorrect because "canvas" is not the correct verb form. The sentence requires the infinitive form "canvass."

Option D is incorrect because "adviced" is not a word in the English language, and "canvas" is not the correct verb form. The correct spelling and verb form are "advised" and "canvass," respectively.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

The Answer is: A. advised, canvass

Practice is the noun (the football practice), and practise is the verb meaning to do repeatedly. The sentence needs verb then noun: I practise the violin after my football practice. British English distinguises these; American English uses practice for both.

Licensed is the correct adjective/past participle meaning having a license. Licence is the noun (British spelling). License as a noun is American spelling. Licenced is an uncommon spelling variant. The sentence needs the adjective form.

Recommend takes different patterns: recommend that someone do something, or recommend doing something. Recommend you to is incorrect. Recommend you should and you must are grammatically wrong. Recommend that you go is the proper subjunctive construction.
