    C. Admittance
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "admittance" because the sentence is indicating a restriction or rule in a store. "Admittance" refers to the act of being allowed to enter or gain access to a place, so the sentence is stating that no one is allowed to enter the store before 9 A.M.

    A. Advice
    Explanation
    The word "endorsed" suggests that the subject is seeking approval or support for something. In this context, it is more likely that the subject is seeking endorsement for their advice rather than their advise, advisement, or advisory. Therefore, "advice" is the most appropriate word to complete the sentence.

    The word "aggravated" means to make a problem or situation worse, which fits well in the given sentence. It suggests that the person's poor health became worse as a result of his drinking. The other options, "irritated," "annoyed," and "angred," do not convey the same meaning and are not suitable in this context.

      All ready

    • D.

      Al ready

    Correct Answer
    C. All ready
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "all ready" because it is the correct spelling and usage of the phrase to indicate that breakfast was prepared and ready to be served by 7 A.M. "Already" means something has happened before a specific time or event, but it does not convey the same meaning as "all ready" in this context. "Allready" and "al ready" are misspellings and do not make sense in the sentence.
