Explanation:

Question 9:

When sewing, pins are used to hold fabric pieces together. Sewing over pins can break the needle or damage the machine, so the correct answer is the option with "pins".

Question 10:

To turn off a sewing machine, the on/off switch is typically turned once. Turning it twice or three times is not standard for just turning it off, so the correct answer is the option with "once".

Question 11:

To pivot or stop in the middle of a stitch and prevent losing the position, the needle is put down into the fabric (so it holds the fabric in place). "Up and out of" or "down in" – putting the needle down in the fabric is the correct action here, so the correct option is "down in".

Question 12:

When using a seam ripper, you rip stitches towards your neighbor? No, the correct technique is to rip stitches away from you (to have better control and avoid hurting yourself or others). Wait, no – actually, when using a seam ripper, you usually rip the stitches by moving the ripper away from you? Wait, no, the standard is to rip towards yourself? Wait, no, let's recall: Seam ripper usage – you hold the fabric, and the seam ripper is used to cut the stitches. The correct direction is to rip the stitches away from you? Wait, no, maybe I got it wrong. Wait, the options are "towards your neighbor", "away from you", "pulling toward you". Wait, the correct way is to rip the stitches away from you? Wait, no, actually, when using a seam ripper, you should rip the stitches by moving the ripper in the direction away from your body, so "away from you" is correct? Wait, no, maybe the correct option is "away from you". Wait, the options are: towards your neighbor, away from you, pulling toward you. So the correct answer is "away from you".

Question 13:

When sewing, you hold the fabric – the correct way is to hold it "steady" (to keep it in place for even stitching). The options are "steady", "away", "work in front of me" – so "steady" is the correct one.

Answer:

1. The option with "pins" (the first option in question 9)
2. The option with "once" (the second option in question 10)
3. The option with "down in" (the second option in question 11)
4. The option with "away from you" (the second option in question 12)
5. The option with "steady" (the first option in question 13)
