Explanation:

Part A

1. Explanation for sentence 1:

We need a verb that means to make or produce paintings. "creates" is the correct verb (third - person singular form as the subject is "He").
So the sentence is: He \(\boldsymbol{creates}\) beautiful paintings and sells them online.

1. Explanation for sentence 2:

The meaning here is that the speaker is okay with waiting for a table because the food is good. "don't mind" is used to express that one is not bothered by something.
So the sentence is: The food at that restaurant is delicious. I \(\boldsymbol{don't\ mind}\) waiting for a table.

1. Explanation for sentence 3:

The context is about not doing an action because something is hot. "touch" is the action that one should not do.
So the sentence is: Don't \(\boldsymbol{touch}\) that! It's very hot.

1. Explanation for sentence 4:

The sentence is about rules for a group of people who work in a place, and "staff" refers to the group of employees.
So the sentence is: There are rules for the \(\boldsymbol{staff}\). For example, everyone should keep their nails short.

1. Explanation for sentence 5:

We need an adjective to describe video games that seem real. "lifelike" means resembling real life.
So the sentence is: Some video games are so \(\boldsymbol{lifelike}\) that they're scary!

1. Explanation for sentence 6:

The meaning is going to the movies by oneself, and "alone" means without others.
So the sentence is: I don't like to go to the movies \(\boldsymbol{alone}\) — it's more fun with friends!

Part B

1. Explanation for sentence 1:

We use "taste" when we are talking about the flavor of something. Insects and mushrooms are things that we can taste, not sound (sound is related to hearing). So we circle "taste".
So the sentence is: Some people say insects \(\boldsymbol{taste}\) like mushrooms.

1. Explanation for sentence 2:

On the phone, we can only hear the other person's voice, so we use "sound" (look is related to seeing, which we can't do on the phone in terms of the person's appearance). So we circle "sound".
So the sentence is: On the phone, you \(\boldsymbol{sound}\) like your mom!

1. Explanation for sentence 3:

We use "feels" to describe the sensation of the weather (the feeling of cold, etc.). "tastes" is for flavor, which is not relevant here. So we circle "feels".
So the sentence is: It \(\boldsymbol{feels}\) like winter, but it's still fall.

1. Explanation for sentence 4:

We use "looks" to describe the appearance of a person (comparing to a movie star's appearance). "smells" is for odor, which is not relevant here. So we circle "looks".
So the sentence is: She \(\boldsymbol{looks}\) like a famous movie star.

1. Explanation for sentence 5:

Old eggs have a bad smell, so we use "smells" (feels is for the sense of touch, which is not relevant for the odor of old eggs). So we circle "smells".
So the sentence is: What is that? It \(\boldsymbol{smells}\) like old eggs!
