How to approach this kind of question

Sound-alike words sound the same but mean different things, so test each one by its meaning. One shows that something belongs to people, one names a place, and one is short for two words. Some small words point toward something, while others mean also or more than enough. Check every sound-alike word in a choice, because one wrong word makes the whole choice wrong.
