I think the best choices in #1 is d, and the best choice in #2 is a. But I'm not sure if those are the right choices. Thank you!

I agree with your second answer, but not with your first.

Is it A again? I know a necropolis is a cemetery, but is a metropolis a condominium? I don't believe so, but that's the closest match I can find.

Ms. Sue
I interpret metropolis:necropolis as a home for the living and a home for the dead. That makes a) the best answer. I rejected d) because necrotic is an adjective.
