Question 1
Brief Explanations

The P.A. system not working means the speaker's voice couldn't be heard. "Inaudible" means not able to be heard, so it fits.

Brief Explanations

A tombstone has an "epitaph" (a phrase or sentence inscribed on a tombstone), so we need to find the word related to a tombstone inscription. "Epitaph" is the correct word.

Brief Explanations

They tried to bring about the emperor's downfall secretly. "Intrigue" here (as a verb) means to plot or scheme, which fits the context of secret plotting.

Answer:
