Answer 2

Answer:

The relevant answer to this query is as follows:

Explanation:

a. The school bookshop sells stationary at reasonable rates.

• Here we can clearly see that the word stationary used is wrong
• The correct spelling is Stationery which means tools utilizes for a study like a pen, pencil, ink, paper, etc.

So the correct one should be:

a) The school bookshop sells stationery at reasonable rates.

b. I was relieved to see my grandfather hail and hearty.

• As we can say that the whole sentence is error-free.

b. I was relieved to see my grandfather hail and hearty.

c. Ice creams, fruits, and cakes are popular deserts.

• As we can see that the spelling of desert that is used here is wrong,
• The correct dessert spelling is used here for the dish.

Thus, The correct statement should be as follows:

c. Ice creams, fruits, and cakes are popular desserts.

d. People would be happy if they adopt themselves to their circumstances.​

• In that sentence, the spelling of adopt is wrong here.
• The "adapt" should be used here to make the sentence meaningful.

So the correct sentence should be as follows:

• d. People would be happy if they adapt themselves to their circumstances.​
