If you "revere" another person, you adore or intensely respect him or her. Perhaps you would revere an amazing teacher or your mother or father—basically, someone who has done amazing or important things. "Admire," which also implies respect, is the correct answer. To "abandon" other people is to leave them, to "offend" is to insult, and to "ignore" is to not pay any attention whatsoever.

Normally, we use the word "differ" with the preposition "from" in the expression "differ from." We might say, "The new truck greatly differed from his former, small vehicle." The word "differ" by itself means to be contrasted to or to disagree with. In particular, the latter meaning is important for our question. Note that all of your options are verbs. When "differ" is used as a verb by itself, it means to disagree, though we do often combine it with some preposition. So, "disagree" is the correct answer.

An example with the word elicit is when you elicit a response; this means that you draw out or evoke a response.

To "jeer" means to mock or make fun of, so "mock" is the correct answer. To help you, "joy" is deep happiness, and "allow" means permit.

If a meaning of a word or words is implied, it means that it is suggested.  Thus, if someone indicates they are going to a faraway place on vacation, it implies that they need space and a change of pace.

To "beseech" means to beg for something from a specific person. "Implore" also means to beg for for something, so "implore" is the correct answer.

The word "negotiate" means arrange a deal. The best choice is "haggle" which means bargain or debate about the details of a deal. Considering the other choices, a "business" is a profession or a company and "business" is trade or commerce, "perplex" means confuse, and something that is "negative" expresses a refusal of something or has to do with things that are missing rather than present.

When you "compute" something, like a math problem, you "calculate" the answer to that problem. As for the other answer choices, when used as a verb, "reason" means to use logic to solve a problem; "discover" means to find; and "signify" means to express or have one thing stand for another.

"Preoccupy" is a verb that is used of a matter or subject and means "dominate or engross the mind of (someone) to the exclusion of other thoughts." So, we need to pick out a verb that means something like "engross." That means that "forget" cannot be the correct answer, because if someone forgets something, that means that it cannot preoccupy their thoughts. "Absorb," however, is a verb that means "absorb all the attention or interest of," and because "absorb" is the answer choice closest in meaning to "preoccupy," "engross" is the correct answer.

The word “demonstrate” means to show how something is done by doing it yourself as an example, so the correct answer is “show.” The word “possess” means to have; the word “compete” means to face someone in a competition; and to “allow” something means to let it happen without trying to prohibit it or stop it.
