解除（かいじょ）means 'lifting/canceling (a restriction, ban, or regulation).' The standard collocation is 交通規制が解除される — traffic controls are lifted once the marathon is over. This fits perfectly: the race ended, so the road restrictions were just lifted.

• 2解禁（かいきん）means 'lifting a ban' on something that was legally prohibited (e.g., alcohol, a restricted product). Traffic regulations for an event are not a 'ban' that gets 解禁; they are temporary controls that get 解除.
• 3廃止（はいし）means 'abolish/scrap permanently' (e.g., a law or system). Traffic controls for a marathon are temporary, not permanently abolished.
• 4停止（ていし）means 'stop/suspend.' Putting it in the sentence would mean the traffic controls were 'stopped/suspended,' which is close in meaning but the wrong collocation — you lift (解除) a 規制, you don't 停止 it. 停止 is used for things like operations or machines.

• 解除かいじょ — lifting/canceling (a restriction, regulation, or ban)
• 解禁かいきん — lifting a legal ban (on a prohibited item/activity)
• 廃止はいし — abolishing/scraping (a system or law) permanently
• 停止ていし — stopping/suspending (operations, a machine, etc.)

レイアウト means 'layout' — the arrangement of text, images, and other elements on a page. The sentence says that by cleverly arranging photos right below articles, the publication becomes easier to read; this is precisely about improving the layout.

• 1スケッチ means 'sketch' — a rough drawing. This is about drawing, not about arranging page elements.
• 3アウトライン means 'outline' — the structural framework or summary of content. While related to writing, it does not refer to the visual placement of photos and text on a page.
• 4ルックス means 'looks/appearance' (borrowed from English 'looks'). It refers to someone's outward appearance and does not fit the context of arranging articles and photos.

• レイアウト（れいあうと） — layout (arrangement of text/images on a page)
• スケッチ（すけっち） — sketch (rough drawing)
• アウトライン（あうとらいん） — outline (structural framework/summary)
• ルックス（るっくす） — looks, outward appearance

起用（きよう）する means 'to appoint/cast (someone) in a role or position,' especially in entertainment, broadcasting, or projects. 起用する is the standard collocation for selecting a person to serve as a program's host/MC (司会). The sentence says a young announcer was appointed as host of a new information program.

• 1採取（さいしゅ）する means 'to collect/gather (samples, data, specimens).' You collect things like rocks or blood samples, not people.
• 2引用（いんよう）する means 'to quote/cite (a passage or source).' You cannot 'quote' a person into a hosting role.
• 3採択（さいたく）する means 'to adopt/select (a proposal, plan, or resolution).' It is used for choosing among plans or motions, not for appointing a person to a position.

• 起用きよう — appointing/casting someone in a role or position
• 採取さいしゅ — collecting/gathering (samples, data, specimens)
• 引用いんよう — quoting/citing (a source or passage)
• 採択さいたく — adopting/selecting (a proposal, plan, or resolution)

駆けつける（かけつける）means 'to rush to/hurry to a place,' especially in response to news or an emergency. 現場に駆けつける is the standard journalistic collocation: reporters rush to the scene upon hearing about an incident. The に particle matches 現場に駆けつける.

• 1寄りかかる（よりかかる）means 'to lean on/rest against' (a wall, a person). Reporters do not 'lean on' the scene.
• 3結びつく（むすびつく）means 'to be connected/linked to.' This describes an abstract relationship, not physically going somewhere.
• 4突っ込む（つっこむ）can mean 'to plunge into/dash into,' but it implies recklessly entering or crashing into something, and is not the standard word for reporters heading to a scene. 駆けつける specifically conveys hurrying to a location in response to news.

• 駆かけつける — to rush to/hurry to a place (in response to news/emergency)
• 寄よりかかる — to lean on/rest against
• 結むすびつく — to be connected/linked to
• 突っ込む（つっこむ） — to plunge into/dash into (also: to point out/stress something)

多角的な（たかくてきな）means 'multifaceted/diversified.' 多角的経営（たかくてきけいえい）is a standard business term: 'diversified management' — expanding a company's operations into multiple different fields. The sentence describes a food company expanding into pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, which is exactly diversified management.

• 1建設的な（けんせつてきな）means 'constructive.' While 'constructive management' sounds positive, it is not a set phrase and does not describe expanding into multiple business fields.
• 2普遍的な（ふへんてきな）means 'universal/general.' This describes something that applies broadly or everywhere, not a company's diversified business strategy.
• 3圧倒的な（あっとうてきな）means 'overwhelming.' You might say 圧倒的な力 or 圧倒的な勝利, but it does not describe the nature of a management approach that spans multiple industries.

• 多角的たかくてきな — multifaceted, diversified (esp. 多角的経営 = diversified management)
• 建設的けんせつてきな — constructive
• 普遍的ふへんてきな — universal, general
• 圧倒的あっとうてきな — overwhelming

• 4軽く焼いて means 'lightly grilling,' also unrelated to slicing.

• スライス — to slice (cut into thin pieces)
• 細こまかく — finely, into small pieces

• 1グループごとに means 'by group / for each group,' not per individual.
• 3一斉に means 'all at once / simultaneously,' focusing on timing rather than distribution to each person.
• 4順々に means 'in turn / one after another,' focusing on order rather than individual distribution.

• めいめいに — each person individually; to each person separately
• 一斉いっせいに — all at once, simultaneously
• 順々じゅんじゅんに — in turn, one after another
