I didn’t understand for the first blank why the anwser is “.” and for second blank its “afforded”
what i think it should be the reverse
The _________ of the royal court afforded authorities sufficient _________ for interference. Isabella, the new queen, _________ and depraved, engendered much instability.
For the second blank i think it would be like “Power” or “Allowance”, For the first blank it has to be something +ve i couldn’t able to came up with the word.
Good so the word “afforded” is what tells you B2 should support the first half. And you know that the queen is producing instability due to supporting the idea of “engendered much stability” from supporting the “.”
