Which sentences use homophones correctly? Select two.The younger brother asked if he could play two.Their jackets are hanging up to dry.The wave washed away there sandcastle.Grandmother’s advice had a big effect on my decision.Does music effect your mood?

Answer
A
The younger brother asked if he could play two.
B
Their jackets are hanging up to dry.
C
The wave washed away there sandcastle.
D
Grandmother’s advice had a big effect on my decision.
E
Does music effect your mood?

Explanation

“Their” correctly shows that the jackets belong to the people being discussed. In “had a big effect,” “effect” is a noun meaning a result, so it is used correctly. The other sentences confuse homophones: “two” should be “too,” “there” should be “their,” and “effect” in the last sentence should be “affect,” a verb meaning to influence.
