To "curtail" something is to reduce its current degree or prevent it from expanding as much as it might have otherwise. The correct answer is thus "limit." If you associated "curtail" with "tail," you may have chosen "follow," but "curtail" does not mean the same thing as "tail," so "follow" is incorrect.

To "innovate" means to invent something new. The best choice is "invent" since it is a part of the definition of "innovate." Considering the other choices, "read" means look at text carefully and understand the meaning of it, "concentrate" means bring to a common point, and "enter" means go in.

This one is tough, because there are no synonyms to eliminate in the answer list. If you remember hearing the word "generation" used to mean a group of people born and living during the same time, you may be able to figure out that "generate" means birth, make, or create. "Produce" has a similar meaning to "create," therefore that is the correct answer. "Destroy" is an antonym of "generate," "predict" means foretell or attempt to determine what will happen in the future, and "loathe" means hate.

"Thwart" is a verb that means defeat. The best choice is "defeat," as it is a part of the definition of "thwart." Considering the other choices, a "pimple" is an inflammatory swelling of the skin, "thaw" means become warm enough to melt, and "toady" means a person who flatters their superiors dutifully; a kiss-up.

Abolish means to completely ruin or tear down. Destroy means to destruct or annhilate something. Given that abolish and destroy have such similar meanings, they are synonyms for one another. Construct is an antonym. Relish and absolute are tricks, as they sound like abolish but are not synonyms. 

The word "generate" means create. The best choice is "create," as it is a part of the defnition of "generate." Considering the other choices,  "dress" means put on clothing, "deny" means refuse, and "tolerate" means endure or permit.

When you “create” something, you make or generate it.

To "decimate" means to completely wipe out. To "obliterate" means to destroy. Given that these two words both signify the end or annihilation of something, they are synonyms.

To “vanquish” means to defeat or overcome something. “Recede” means to go back or to move away from; “desert” means to leave behind or to abandon when used as a verb; and “propose” means to suggest or to share an idea with someone.

"Devise" means create or design and is often used to refer to plans or strategies. "Construct" is thus the best answer choice, as it means create and can refer to ideas or physical things. None of the other answer choices are close in meaning to "devise."
