1 ceiling: "Ceiling" is the correct choice here. When we're standing in a room, the floor is under our feet, the walls are the upright sides, and when we look up, we can see the ceiling. A pronunciation tip: "ceiling" is pronounced "see-ling". Example: "Is that a dead mosquito on the ceiling?".

3 window: "Window" is the correct answer. A "window" is a hole in a wall, usually covered with glass. Windows let light in, and allow us to see what's happening in the garden (or in the apartment opposite). Example: "Open the window and let some fresh air in: it smells like feet in here!".

Finally, the term "basement" shares a similar meaning with: cellar
cellar: "Cellar" is the best choice here. The term "basement" refers to a room or series of rooms below the ground. In the UK, the term "cellar" means the same thing. Some more examples: "Our teenage son sleeps in the basement of our house. That way, we don't have to smell him" (US), "We store all our fine wine in the cellar, to keep it at the right temperature" (UK).
cave: This is not correct. A "cave" is a large hole in a rock, for example in the side of a mountain. "Cavemen" were prehistoric humans living in caves, and this term can also be used as an insult to describe someone who has old-fashioned attitudes.
roof: This is not correct. The "roof" is the triangular or flat surface which covers buildings to stop the rain getting it. Example: "The hurricane blew the roof of our house off, and now we're cold and wet". It does not share a similar meaning with "basement": they are at opposite ends of the house!
loft: This is not correct. A "loft" or "attic" is a large room at the top of a house or other building. Example: "Our loft is full of spiders and old toys. I find it scary up there!". It does not share a similar meaning with "basement": they are at opposite ends of the house!
