Answer : 4. "Advertise"
Explanation :

The most appropriate synonym for "announce" is "advertise." "Announce" means to make something known or to declare publicly, and "advertise" involves making information or products known to the public through various means. The other options, such as "denounce" (to condemn publicly), "secret" (concealed), and "hide" (to keep something out of sight), have different meanings and do not convey the idea of making information widely known as "advertise" does.

Answer : 4. "Occasional"
Explanation :

The most appropriate synonym for "sporadic" in the given sentence is "occasional."

Answer : 3. "apartment"
Explanation :

An "apartment" is the most appropriate word for a set of rooms forming one residence in a building.

The other options, such as "suite," "villa," and "bungalow," may refer to different types of housing arrangements that may not necessarily involve multiple rooms forming one residence in a building.
