Answer 1

The correct answers are 'could have bought' for the first blank and 'wouldn't be' for the second. These choices are informed by the third conditional and hypothetical situations for past unreal and present unreal conditions, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answers to the fill-in-the-blank questions are as follows:

1. I could have bought that car if I had had more money at the time.
2. If you had eaten a good breakfast, you wouldn't be so hungry now.

The questions are testing your understanding of conditional sentences and the correct forms of verbs to use. The first sentence is an example of the third conditional, which is used to talk about things that did not happen in the past and their hypothetical results. The correct form of the verb to use here is "could have bought," which indicates an ability in the past that was not realized due to some reason, in this case, a lack of money. The second sentence is also conditional, referring to an imagined situation in the present or future and its result. The correct verb form is "wouldn't be," indicating the result of a condition that was not met.
