Question

This question presents two fill-in-the-blank items requiring single Hiragana characters that complete common Japanese imperatives.

1) うるさくするのをや _[Fill in the blank] なさい。 (Stop being loud.)
- The target phrase is the imperative form of or connected to the verb やめる meaning 'to stop/quit.' When forming やめなさい ('stop it!'), the stem before ない/なさい is やめ. The blank should provide the remaining character to complete やめ, which is め. So the correct fill here is め.
- Why not other options? Using a different Hiragana would break the familiar verb stem: for example, やめんなさい would be nonstandard; やませなさい would change the meaning entirely and is not a proper imperative form. The natural, established completion is め to yield やめなさい.

2) 飲み物を買ってお _[Fill in the blank] なさい。 (Buy drinks ahead of time)
- Here the intended construction is 買っておくなさい, which means 'buy ahead of time' or 'buy and set aside for later.' The blank must provide the final Hiragana that, when combined with お, forms おく, producing おくなさい. Since only a single Hiragana is requested, the correct fill is き to complete おき, resulting in おきなさい.
- Why not other options? Using く or おく as separate tokens would disrupt the instruction form. The standard sequence to convey preparation is おく with the imperative なさい following, so the single character that fits the blank is き.

In summary, the two blanks are filled with め and き to produce やめなさい and おきなさい, which are the natural, grammatically correct imperatives in these contexts.
