Answer:

A). To rig or unfairly influence an outcome.

C). To preserve a specimen for study.

Explanation:

The excerpt from T.S. Eliot's 'The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock' demonstrating the obsession of an old modern man with his own sense of vulnerability and insufficiency to deserve the woman he loves. This leads to developing a lower moral and self-esteem that serves him creating an image of himself portraying him to be inadequate('I am pinned and wriggling') to the requirements of women.

The two meanings of 'fix' suggested here could be 'to rig or unfairly influence an outcome' and 'to repair something that is damaged or broken' as he considers himself to be incompetent or deficient who needs to be 'repaired'. Thus, <u>options A and C</u> are the answers.
