Let’s go through each sentence one by one and pick the best word from the box that fits.

The words in the box are:
hot, light, cut, clean, stuff, warm, too, never, long, get

---

1. The ______ is shining brightly in my eyes.
→ What shines brightly? The light! (Like sunlight or a lamp.)
✔ Answer: light

2. My stomach is ______ of these bright red apples.
→ “Full” isn’t in the box, but “stuff” can be used like “stuffed.” So “My stomach is stuff of...” doesn’t sound right. Wait — maybe it’s “full of,” but we don’t have “full.” Let’s think again. Actually, “stuff” can be a verb, but here it needs to describe the stomach. Hmm… Maybe this is tricky. Let’s skip and come back.

Wait — perhaps it’s “My stomach is full” — but “full” isn’t in the box. Oh! Maybe it’s “My stomach is stuffed” — but “stuffed” isn’t there either. But “stuff” is in the box. Could it be “My stomach is stuff”? No, that’s not grammatical.

Hold on — maybe I misread. Let me check the sentence again:
“My stomach is ______ of these bright red apples.”

Actually, maybe it’s “My stomach is full” — but since “full” isn’t an option, perhaps the intended word is “stuff” as in “stuffed,” even though it’s not perfect. Or maybe it’s a typo? Let’s look at other sentences first.

Alternatively — could it be “My stomach is warm”? That doesn’t fit with “of these apples.”
Or “My stomach is hot”? Also doesn’t make sense with “of.”

Wait — maybe it’s “My stomach is full” — but since “full” isn’t available, perhaps the correct word is “stuff” meaning “filled with stuff.” In informal speech, people say “I’m stuffed!” So maybe “My stomach is stuff” is meant to be “stuffed,” but written as “stuff.” That might be the intention.

But let’s hold off and do others first.

3. Please ______ your boots before coming inside.
→ You take off dirty boots or wipe them. “Clean” makes sense!
✔ Answer: clean

4. He ______ a sliver from carrying the wood.
→ A “sliver” is a small sharp piece of wood. If you carry wood, you might get a sliver.
✔ Answer: get

5. My mother is ______ going on that scary ride.
→ She probably doesn’t want to go. So “never” fits: “My mother is never going on that scary ride.”
✔ Answer: never

6. We ______ go to church when dad is ready.
→ This suggests waiting. “Too” doesn’t fit. “Long” doesn’t fit. “Get” doesn’t fit. Wait — maybe “will”? Not in box. Oh! Maybe “too” as in “We too go…” — no, that doesn’t make sense.
Wait — perhaps it’s “We get to go…” — meaning we are allowed to go. But the sentence says “when dad is ready,” so maybe it’s about timing.
Another idea: “We long go…” — no.
Wait — maybe it’s “We too go…” — still no.
Perhaps it’s “We get to go…” — yes! “We get to go to church when dad is ready.” That means we are able to go once he’s ready.
✔ Answer: get — but wait, we already used “get” in #4. Can we reuse words? The instructions don’t say we can’t. Let’s assume we can reuse if needed. But let’s see if another word fits better.

Actually, looking again — maybe “too” as in “We too go…” — no, that would mean “also,” which doesn’t fit.
Another possibility: “We long go…” — no.
Perhaps it’s “We get to go…” — yes, that’s natural. So I’ll go with get.

But let’s note: “get” might be used twice. Okay.

7. God did ______ the roast for our dinner.
→ Did what? Cooked it? Made it hot? “Hot” could work: “God did hot the roast” — no, that’s not grammatical.
“Clean”? No. “Cut”? Maybe — “God did cut the roast” — possible, but unusual.
“Warm”? “God did warm the roast” — that makes sense! Like heating it up.
✔ Answer: warm

8. I ______ a bite on my leg from the spider.
→ You get a bite. Again, “get” fits.
✔ Answer: get — third time? Maybe okay.

9. It is a ______ driveway to the beautiful house.
→ Driveways can be long. “Long driveway” is common.
✔ Answer: long

10. When you are ______, you can get a new bed.
→ When you are what? Tired? Sleepy? Not in box. “Too” tired? “Too” could work: “When you are too [tired], you can get a new bed.” But the sentence doesn’t have “tired.” Wait — maybe it’s “When you are too [something]” — but the blank is after “are,” so it needs an adjective.
Options left: hot, cut, stuff, too, never, long, get — but many are used.
Wait — perhaps “When you are too [old?]” — not specified.
Another idea: “When you are cut” — no.
“Stuff”? No.
“Hot”? “When you are hot, you can get a new bed” — doesn’t make much sense.
“Too” — “When you are too [something]” — but the sentence is incomplete without context.
Wait — maybe it’s “When you are too [tired]” — implied. In casual speech, “When you’re too [whatever], you can get a new bed.” But that’s weak.

Perhaps it’s “When you are long” — no.
Another thought: maybe “When you are cut” — as in injured? Doesn’t fit.
Let’s reconsider sentence 2.

Back to sentence 2: “My stomach is ______ of these bright red apples.”
What if it’s “My stomach is full” — but “full” isn’t there. Unless “stuff” is meant to be “stuffed.” In some dialects or child language, they might say “I’m stuff” meaning “I’m stuffed.” So perhaps stuff is intended for #2.

Then for #10, what’s left? Words not yet used: hot, cut, too

For #10: “When you are ______, you can get a new bed.”
If you are too [tired/sick/etc.], you can get a new bed. “Too” can imply excess, so “When you are too [uncomfortable], you can get a new bed.” It’s a bit vague, but “too” might be the only one that fits loosely.

Alternatively, “When you are hot, you can get a new bed” — if the old bed is hot, maybe. But that’s stretching.

Another idea: “When you are cut” — no.

Perhaps “too” is the best fit for #10.

Now let’s list all answers with reasoning:

1. The light is shining brightly in my eyes. → ✔ light

2. My stomach is stuff of these bright red apples. → Assuming “stuff” means “stuffed” informally. ✔ stuff

3. Please clean your boots before coming inside. → ✔ clean

4. He got a sliver — but “get” is present tense. Sentence is “He ______ a sliver” — should be past tense? But “get” is in base form. Maybe it’s “He gets” — but not in box. Perhaps it’s acceptable as “He get” in non-standard English? Unlikely. Wait — maybe it’s “He cut a sliver”? No, you don’t cut a sliver; you get one. Perhaps the verb is “get” and it’s meant to be present tense for general truth. I’ll stick with get.

But let’s check: “He get a sliver” is grammatically incorrect. Should be “gets” or “got.” Since “got” isn’t in box, and “get” is, perhaps it’s a mistake, or perhaps in this context, it’s accepted. Alternatively, maybe “cut” — “He cut a sliver” — but that means he made a sliver, not received one. Doesn’t fit.

Another possibility: “He has a sliver” — not in box. I think we have to go with get, assuming it’s a simplification.

5. My mother is never going on that scary ride. → ✔ never

6. We get to go to church when dad is ready. → ✔ get (meaning “are able to”)

7. God did warm the roast for our dinner. → ✔ warm

8. I get a bite on my leg from the spider. → ✔ get (present tense for habitual or general)

9. It is a long driveway to the beautiful house. → ✔ long

10. When you are too, you can get a new bed. → This is awkward. “Too” what? Perhaps it’s “When you are too [tired]” — implied. Or maybe “When you are hot” — if you’re too hot in bed, you get a new one. But “hot” is still available.

Words left unused: hot, cut, too

For #10, “When you are hot, you can get a new bed.” — if the mattress is hot, maybe. Possible.

“When you are cut” — doesn’t make sense.

“When you are too” — incomplete.

Perhaps “too” is for #6? Let’s reexamine #6.

#6: “We ______ go to church when dad is ready.”

If we put “too”: “We too go to church” — means “we also go,” which could work if others are going. But the sentence doesn’t mention others. Still, it’s possible.

Then for #10, “When you are hot, you can get a new bed.” — a bit forced.

Another idea for #10: “When you are long” — no.

Perhaps “cut” for #10? “When you are cut, you can get a new bed.” — no connection.

Let’s look back at the word box: hot, light, cut, clean, stuff, warm, too, never, long, get

Used so far:
1. light
2. stuff (assumed)
3. clean
4. get
5. never
6. ?
7. warm
8. get (again)
9. long
10. ?

Left: hot, cut, too

For #6: “We ______ go to church when dad is ready.”

If we use “too”: “We too go to church” — grammatically okay, means “we also go.”

For #10: “When you are ______, you can get a new bed.”

If we use “hot”: “When you are hot, you can get a new bed.” — perhaps if you're overheating in bed.

Or “cut”: doesn't fit.

"Too" for #10: "When you are too, you can get a new bed." — missing adjective, so bad.

So better to use "hot" for #10.

Then for #6, use "too".

But "too" in #6: "We too go to church" — it's a bit formal or old-fashioned, but acceptable.

Alternatively, is there a better fit?

Another thought for #2: perhaps "My stomach is full" — but not in box. Or "My stomach is warm" — but we used warm for #7.

Let's try a different approach. List all sentences and assign uniquely if possible.

Perhaps "cut" for #4: "He cut a sliver" — but that means he created a sliver, not that he got one from carrying wood. Doesn't fit.

"Get" is best for #4 and #8.

For #10, let's consider "too" as in "When you are too [something]", but since it's not specified, maybe it's "When you are too tired" implied, and "too" is the word.

In many such exercises, "too" is used that way.

For example, "When you are too sleepy, you can sleep." Here, "When you are too, you can get a new bed" — implies "too uncomfortable" or something.

It's weak, but perhaps intended.

Maybe "hot" for #10: if you're too hot in bed, you get a new one.

I think "hot" is better than "too" for #10.

Then for #6, "too" : "We too go to church" — means we also go, which is fine.

So let's finalize:

1. light
2. stuff (for "stuffed")
3. clean
4. get
5. never
6. too
7. warm
8. get
9. long
10. hot

But "get" is used twice, which is ok if allowed.

Is there a word for #2 besides "stuff"? What about "full" — not in box. "Warm" — "My stomach is warm of apples" — no. "Hot" — same issue. So "stuff" is the only possibility.

For #4, "He get a sliver" — should be "gets" or "got", but since "get" is the only option, we'll use it.

Similarly for #8.

Now for #10, "When you are hot, you can get a new bed." — a bit odd, but possible.

Perhaps "cut" for #10? "When you are cut, you can get a new bed." — no logical connection.

So I think the best assignment is:

1. light
2. stuff
3. clean
4. get
5. never
6. too
7. warm
8. get
9. long
10. hot

But let's double-check sentence 6: "We too go to church when dad is ready." — this means "We also go to church when dad is ready," which implies others are going too. It's grammatically correct.

Sentence 10: "When you are hot, you can get a new bed." — if you're feeling hot in your current bed, you might get a new one. Acceptable.

Another possibility for #10: "When you are too" — but that's incomplete.

I think this is as good as it gets.

Final Answers:

1. light
2. stuff
3. clean
4. get
5. never
6. too
7. warm
8. get
9. long
10. hot

Note: "get" is used twice, which is fine since the instructions don't prohibit reuse.
