Answer to Question 1

A
By adding the prefix ir before the word relevant, the antonym of the word is formed. An
antonym is a word that means exactly the opposite of another word. Antonyms can be formed
by adding the prefixes il, in, ir, non, and un before a word.

Answer to Question 2

C
The words accept and except are pseudo-homonyms. Pseudo-homonyms are words that
sound somewhat alike but have different meanings. When pronounced correctly, these words
do not sound exactly alike.
