    Solution

    A. influence – shape  Influence → affect indirectly (correct for opinion) Shape → gradually form behaviour (correct for collective action) B. affect – control  Control = direct command or authority (wrong) C. alter – change  Both mean “change”; too vague and repetitive No distinction between opinion and behaviour D. impact – modify  Modify = minor technical change (not behaviour) E. guide – direct  Implies intentional leadership or authority, not social media’s role
