Answer 1

a. afford...........

Answer 2

Answer:

We have so little money that we can't even afford to employee typist.

Explanation:

• The sentence describes that the company people are having little money where they can’t even pay for employee.
• That’s why the correct suitable word is ‘afford’ which means paying money to someone.
• The other words depend, permit and provide will not suit the sentence because the word ‘depend’ is used we rely on a particular person or a thing.
• Permit is used in the sentence where the work is done with official authorization.
• Provide is used in the sentence when something is used for.
