For the first task (accommodate):
To find words related to "accommodate" (meaning provide lodging or space), we analyze the options: "offer" (provide) and "put up" (provide lodging) are related. "Opposes" and "regrets" are unrelated.
"Alleviate" means to make a problem less severe. Its opposites would be words that make a problem worse. "Worsens" and "intensifies" do that, while "lessens" and "improves" are similar or positive, not opposites.
If construction work "aggravated" (made worse) the renter, the renter would likely feel frustrated (annoyed by the problem). "Content", "pleased", and "satisfied" are positive emotions, opposite of what an aggravated situation would cause.
