I would say the easiest ways of figuring out the answers to these would be finding common correlation between these words and other similar words. Try Donation for example: Appreciation - The act of Appreciating Donation - The act of Donating Caution - The act of being cautious They all share the "tion" sound. They also all share "the act of". So, where would your answer be? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 is correct. Again, use correlation and you will get - Specialize - to make special Prioritize - to make priorities Tenderize - To make tender what do they all share? IZE!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7 is incorrect you have B selected. Think about it a little more. Appreciation - The act of Appreciating Donation - The act of Donating Caution - The act of being cautious They all share the "tion" sound. If they all share "tion" then what is the only option they can be?
