a. perspective
b. retrospective
c. spectacle
d. spectators
e. spectacles

Explanation:

1. For the first question, "make a spectacle of oneself" is a common phrase meaning to behave in a way that attracts negative attention. In the context of the baby throwing a rattle in a quiet restaurant, this phrase fits. The other words don't form the correct expression.
2. For the second question, "retrospective" means looking back at past events. Since the documentary looks back on how pets have been helping people for centuries, "retrospective" is the appropriate word. Perspective refers to a point - of - view, spectacle is a show or an unusual event, spectators are people who watch an event, and spectacles are glasses.

Answer:

1. C. spectacle
2. B. retrospective
