- A.

Correct Answer
B. Any

Explanation
The word "any" is the correct answer because it is used in negative sentences to indicate that there is no quantity or amount of something. In this case, Elliot didn't buy any computer games, meaning he didn't purchase even a single one. The word "some" would imply that he bought at least one computer game, which contradicts the given information.

The word "some" is the correct answer because it is used to offer an indefinite quantity of bread. In this context, "some" implies a small amount or a few slices of bread. The word "a" is incorrect because it suggests a single piece of bread, which may not be enough for a meal.
