For the first blank, euthanasia garners (gathers or stores up) kt of media attention; it does not deflect (turn aside) media attention or impinge (make an impression or have an effect) upon the media. For the second blank, only ingratiate and interpolate require an object (here,"themselves") so you can eliminate pique (to wound or excite).To interpolate or interject oneself on the public does not make sense, so the correct answer for blank ii is ingratiate, or become popular with. You can also match this term's sensibility with the first blank to double check your answer. For the final blank, an ethically charged case impugns (challenges) the taw. Improvise (to perform on the spur of the moment) and depose (to dethrone) do not fit the context.

This one is odd. I think we can use ingratiate with "with" only. ingratiate on is grammatically incorrect
