Explanation:

Question 1

To solve this, we analyze the meaning of "lease". "Lease" means to pay to use something (like an apartment) for a period. Option a is buying, b is selling, c is lending (which is different from leasing), and d matches the definition of leasing.

"Divorced" means a marriage has ended, so the person is no longer married. Option a is married (opposite), b is never married (single), d is a widow (spouse died), so c is correct.

"Flexible" plans are those that can be changed easily. Option b is refusing to change, c is hoping to change (not the same as being able to), d is wanting to change (also not the same as being able to). So a is correct.

Answer:

d. pay to use it
