    Explanation
    The word "orb" refers to a spherical object, typically used to describe a celestial body such as the moon or the sun. A circle is a two-dimensional shape that is perfectly round and has no edges or corners. Therefore, "circle" is the most fitting and logical answer to complete the sentence.

    Correct Answer
    A. Act of state of
    Explanation
    The term "act of state" refers to a legal doctrine that grants immunity to certain actions taken by a government within its own territory. It means that the actions of a government, such as nationalization of property or expropriation, are considered valid and cannot be challenged or interfered with by other countries or their courts. This doctrine is based on the principle of sovereignty and is used to protect a government's right to govern within its own borders without external interference.

    Correct Answer
    A. Land
    Explanation
    The term "Terr" refers to an unspecified noun or subject. The correct answer, "land," suggests that Terr is most likely referring to a piece of land or a specific area of land. This answer is supported by the fact that "water," "circle," and "between" are all unrelated to Terr, leaving "land" as the most logical and relevant option.
