    Solution

    I. "The artist carefully stretched a large canvas across the wooden frame, preparing it for a new masterpiece." - Correct. In this statement, "canvas" is appropriately used to refer to a fabric used for painting. II. "During the election season, volunteers went door to door to canvas neighborhoods, engaging with residents and discussing candidate platforms." - Incorrect. The correct word in this context should be "canvass," not "canvas." "Canvass" means to solicit votes or opinions. III.
