Answer : 3. "apartment"
Explanation :
An "apartment" is the most appropriate word for a set of rooms forming one residence in a building. The term "apartment" typically refers to a self-contained living space within a larger building or complex, and it is commonly used to describe a single unit within a residential structure. 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.

Answer : 4. "Cursed"
Explanation :
The most appropriate antonym for the underlined word "blessed" in the given sentence is "cursed."

The other options— "appointed" (designated for a specific role), "produced" (created), and "applied" (put into action)— do not convey the opposite meaning of "blessed" in this context.
