You're welcome! Let's go through the reasoning behind your answers:

For the first question, "To (blank) did you write the card?", the correct word to use is "whom." To determine whether "who" or "whom" is the correct choice, you need to identify the function of the word in the sentence. In this case, "whom" is the correct choice because it serves as the object of the preposition "to," indicating that someone received the card. To confirm your answer, you can rephrase the sentence as "You wrote the card to whom?" and see that "whom" is the correct pronoun to use.

For the second question, "The steep rise in gas prices angered the population," the word "steep" is used to describe the rise in gas prices. The correct meaning of "steep" in this context is "sudden" because it refers to a sharp and significant increase in prices. It does not refer to something being vertical (A) or immersed (C). So your answer of "sudden" is correct.

Well done! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
