Answer:

Site

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first sentence, the correct word to use would be "site" as opposed to "sight." The sentence is refering to a particular location or area, and not to the ability to see. The mistake is a consequence of the fact that these two words sound the same. Words that have the same pronunciation but different meaning and spelling are called homophones.
