Solution

The correct pairs are AE, BD, and CF. AE: A tells us how people have plenty of bank account options to choose from but there is one kind of bank account that they need for everyday transitions. E tells us what this type of account is called and what its importance is. The article A given in A correctly modifies the noun CHECKING ACCOUNT given in E. "You have plenty of choices when it comes to bank accounts, but the one you need for everyday transactions is a checking account to pay bills, make purchases, deposit checks and transfer funds." BD: B tells us how overspending has become a common problem for Americans, where, according to D, many of them live paycheck to paycheck, meaning they spend all of their earnings without saving any significant amount of money. The adverb CURRENTLY given in B correctly modifies the verb LIVE given in D. "Overspending has become a common problem for Americans; about six in ten currently live paycheck to paycheck. " CF: C tells us that it can be tempting for people to buy things that they see others buying as a way to show that they can afford those things, as given in F. "It can be tempting to buy what you see others buying as a way to signal that you can afford it. " Thus, E is the right answer.
