I was searching for how to post by the search but couldn't find the verbal one. Anyway, Thanks.

The ID: Q01-179

He tried with all himself to say that he was innocent and to exonerate himself from any collusion or fault, but she did npt beleive him

B and E are synonyms and, as such, the right answers.

Regards

PS: I fixed into the test. The choices were correct but in the explanation was indicated F as correct choice but was E.

Thank you

I didn't realise that absolve can be used if being done on oneself, however eliminating the other options, b&e make the most sense.

mk2406, you are right. 'absolve oneself' is rare usage. I guess, 'redeem' would have been better here, but then, it would have probably made the sentence easier.

Why would it be? It has no pair by the way apart from making no sense.
