Explanation:

Analyze Question 1

Using the Spanish Subject Verb Agreement and Spanish Vocabulary knowledge points:

• The sentence is: "Luisa, por favor, _________ las zanahorias para la ensalada ahora."
• This is a direct address to "Luisa" (informal singular tú), requesting her to perform an action ("peel the carrots").
• The context requires an affirmative informal command (tú imperative) for the verb pelar (to peel).
• The affirmative tú command of regular -ar verbs uses the third-person singular present indicative form: pela.
• Therefore, the correct option is a) pela.

Analyze Question 2

Using the Spanish Subject Verb Agreement and Spanish Vocabulary knowledge points:

• The sentence is: "Ellos quieren que tú _________ la cena esta noche."
• The main clause "Ellos quieren que..." expresses a wish or desire, which triggers the subjunctive mood in the subordinate clause.
• The subject of the subordinate clause is tú.
• The verb is cocinar (to cook). The present subjunctive conjugation for tú of the verb cocinar is cocines.
• Therefore, the correct option is d) cocines.
