How to choose the right word

  • Grammar first: does the gap need a noun, verb, adjective or adverb? Cross out options that don't fit.
  • Then meaning: read the whole sentence, and the one after it.
  • Then collocation: which word naturally goes with its neighbours? (take responsibility, not make responsibility.)
