Answer 1

The best way to go about a question like this is to think about what words wouldn’t fit, and why. For example in 1.) “Many people ___ milk at breakfast.” Using your common sense, drink would be the the answer that makes the most sense. A word like “cuts” or “eat” wouldn’t work in that context.
