    "Peruse" means to look at something carefully and/or to think about it carefully. You might peruse the contents of a chapter of your grammar book.

    Why do you think that someone with heart problems would look at or concentrate on fatty foods (foods that contain a lot of fat)? Don't you think that the best thing for them to do would be to avoid fatty foods? Does one of the choices also mean "to avoid"?

    After all, perusing fatty food can't hurt as long as they don't eat it , but the correct answer is " steer clear of (=keep away from/make sure to avoid) fatty food".
    Another answer is correct.

    I don't understand what you mean. We have told you that the answer(s) you have chosen so far are incorrect. You still have to work out the correct answer.

    The correct answer is "steer clear of"

    The user posted these questions earlier today, but ignored the suggestions given in reply to it. Sometimes I think there's no use replying unless you specified "English" as your native language.
    But it's good to see there're people willing to help.

    You still have a problem here:
    47. Only a(n) ____________ of the class passed the examination.
    A. concoction C. receptacle
    B. texture D. fraction

    Answer:- A

    What do these four words mean?
    There is only one that could POSSIBLY be right.

    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
