1 widen: "Widen" is the right answer here. To "widen" something is to make it "wider", that is to say "larger in width". We can "widen" things metaphorically or literally. Example: "We've widened our search for a new candidate", "The road near my house is being widened for lorries".
2 eligible: "Eligible" is the right answer here. To be "eligible (for something)" is to be "able" or "entitled to do it". Another example: "As one of our most loyal customers, you are eligible to enter our "most loyal customer" competition".
3 rent: "Rent" is the right answer. "Rent" is the money (generally paid monthly) by a tenant to live in a property owned by someone else. Example: "My father pays my rent because I'm too lazy to get a job".
