Final answer:
The student should choose A) Conscious - aware and B) Performed - executed as the correct synonyms for 'awone' and 'ac' respectively. Both aware and conscious mean being cognizant, while performed and executed both mean to carry out an action.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asked to locate synonyms in a letter for the words 'awone' and 'ac' which correspond to 'conscious' and 'performed', respectively. The correct options would therefore be A) Conscious - aware and B) Performed - executed. Option C) Conscious - performed is incorrect because 'conscious' and 'performed' are not synonyms. Option D) Aware - executed is also incorrect as 'aware' and 'executed' do not have the same meaning. Aware is synonymous with being mindful or cognizant of something whereas executed means to carry out an action or plan.
