| List-I | List-II | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| (A) affected | (II) The flood has greatly affected the entire region. | Affected is the past participle of the verb affect, to have an effect on. "Has affected" needs a verb form. |
| (B) affectation | (IV) No one can put up with his irritating affectation. | An affectation is behaviour that is false and meant to impress, which can be irritating. |
| (C) affection | (I) The mother's affection for her child knows no bounds. | Affection means love and fondness. A mother's love for her child is boundless. |
| (D) effective | (III) The innovative methods of solving the problems proved very effective. | Effective means producing the result wanted. "Proved very" needs an adjective. |
