Solution

The correct option is D Pardon
'Absolve' means to free someone from guilt, blame or responsibility for something. E.g. The report absolved her from all blame for the accident. 'Punish' means to cause someone who has done something wrong or committed a crime to suffer, by hurting them, forcing them to pay money, sending them to prison etc. 'Pardon' means if someone who has committed a crime is pardoned, that person is officially forgiven and their punishment is stopped. 'Waste' means bad use of something. 'Spend' means to give money as a payment for something.
Thus, option B is the correct synonym for the given word.
