Explanation:

For part A:

1. To form a new word with "un - " and " - ly" added to the root "just", we combine them as "unjustly" (prefix "un - " meaning not, suffix " - ly" for adverb, so "not fair and right - ly").
2. With "ad - " (toward) and " - ment" (noun suffix), we get "adjustment" (action of adjusting, related to the root "just" in the sense of making right).
3. "in - " (not) and " - ice" (noun suffix) form "injustice" (lack of fairness or rightness).
4. "mal - " (bad), "ad - " (toward), and " - ed" (past tense) give "maladjusted" (badly adjusted, not right in adjustment).
5. " - ify" (to make) and " - ed" (past tense) form "justified" (made just or fair).

For part B:

1. Adding " - ed" to "adjust" gives "adjusted", and the new sentence is "We will adjusted his grade after he finished his performance task." (Note: Grammatically, it should be "We will adjust his grade...", but following the task of adding the suffix, the word is "adjusted").
2. Adding "un - " to "just" gives "unjust", and the new sentence is "It will be unjust that I get accepted to the college of my choice." (meaning it would not be fair).
3. Adding "un - " to "justifiably" gives "unjustifiably", and the new sentence is "The health resort was known for its unjustifiably pure drinking water." (meaning not justifiably pure).
4. Adding "in - " and " - s" to "justice" gives "injustices", and the new sentence is "The judge was considered to be passionate about injustices always being served in her court." (meaning unfair situations being addressed).
5. Adding "over - " and " - ment" to "adjust" gives "overadjustment", and the new sentence is "After waking up, they overadjustment the thermostat to a comfortable temperature." (Note: Grammatically, it should be "they make an overadjustment...", but following the task of adding the affixes, the word is "overadjustment").
