Answer : 3. "in spite of"
Explanation :

The correct sentence should be:

I couldn't sleep because I was very tired.

Explanation: The phrase "in case of being very tired" is awkward and not commonly used in English. Instead, you can use the phrase "because I was very tired" to clearly express the reason for not being able to sleep.

Answer : 4. "to say anything"
Explanation :

The correct sentence should be:

She was too startled at first to say anything, but finally, she blurted out the truth.

Explanation: The phrase "to say something" is the appropriate choice here. The verb "startled" is typically followed by an infinitive verb form, so "to say" is used. Additionally, the sentence benefits from proper punctuation, including a comma after "first" and another after "finally."
