To hep you, "suspend" means pause or hang from a specified location, "refute" means demonstrate to not be true, "portray" means show or represent, and to "obliterate" means to completely destroy.

"Pursue" means chase or run after, so "chase" is the correct answer. To "polish" means to clean and make shiny. "Explain" means describe or provide more details that make something more understandable. "Obey" means listen to, comply, or listen to someone and comply with rules and directions they give you.

The general idea behind "thrusting" is pushing or shoving. This might tempt you to thinking of choosing "slap." However, this is not quite correct. Think of how we use the word "thrust." We might say, "He thrust himself out into the crowd." This means that he pushed his way into the crowd. We could also say, "He thrust the duck at her," meaning that he pushed the bird toward the other person. Someone could thrust an object into a bag, meaning that he or she shoved it into the bag. Thus, the best option among those given is "shove."

Notice that all of these options deal with walking or running in some way; However, to "stroll" is to walk in an aimless manner. When we stroll, we just "walk around" without anywhere in particular to go, often in a very slow manner. Thus, the best option is "wander." This best expresses this kind of walking (or, strolling)!

The word "detain" means to hold or to imprison. Because it can indicate imprisonment, you may be tempted to pick "condemn" or "torture," but these are not correct. Yes, condemned people can be imprisoned, and imprisoned people can be tortured; however, this is not the meaning of "detain." Thus, the best option is "hold." You could say, "I detained him for three hours in the room." This means that you kept the person in the room for that long—effectively "holding" him there.

The word "swell" means to grow larger. For example, if you have a "swollen" throat, you have a throat that is likely enlarged from illness. The word "swell" is also used informally to say that you are doing well. For example, to say, "I am doing swell," means, "I am doing very well!" The best option among those given here, however, is "grow."

The word "interrogate" comes from roots that mean to ask or to question. You could say, "He interrogated her for many hours, trying to discover the cause of the murder." This means that he asked the other person questions for hours to discover the murder's cause. The word "question" can be used as a verb. You could rewrite that sentence with just that basic replacement: "He questioned her for many hours, trying to discover the cause of the murder."

When you "fasten" two things together, you somehow tie or attach them together. When you "fasten your belt" in the car, you are connecting its parts together, "snapping them into place." Although many words could be used as synonyms for "fasten," the simple "attach" works best among the options provided. If you fasten something to the wall, you do, certainly, attach it to the wall.
