Explanation:

- In the sentence, "Public service is not merely something that occupies the hours you are doing it, but invades all your life and experience and affects them in one way or the other," the word "invades" suggests entering or affecting an area extensively.

- Option 1: preserves - means to keep intact or unchanged, which is opposite in meaning to "invades."

- Option 2: demolishes - means to destroy, which doesn't align with affecting or spreading through life.

- Option 3: covers - suggests extending over an area, aligning closely with the notion of affecting all life aspects. Correct Answer

- Option 4: spoils - means to damage, which is not synonymous with "invades."
