1. what does \despertarse\ mean?

Explanation:

Question 1:

"Acostarse" is a Spanish reflexive verb. Breaking it down, "acostar" relates to laying down, and the reflexive form "acostarse" means to go to bed (as one lays down in bed to sleep). Option a is "to wake up" (despertarse), c is "to get dressed" (vestirse), d is "to leave" (salir). So the correct option is b.

"Afeitarse" comes from "afeitar" which means to shave, and the reflexive form indicates the action is done to oneself. Option a is "to put on clothes" (vestirse), b is "to dry oneself" (secarse), d is "to fix one's hair" (arreglarse el pelo). So the correct option is c.

"Arreglarse el pelo" - "arreglar" here means to fix or arrange, "pelo" is hair. So it means to fix one's hair. Option a is "to do one's makeup" (maquillarse), c is "to brush one's teeth" (cepillarse los dientes), d is "to take a shower" (ducharse). So the correct option is b.

Answer:

b. to go to bed
