Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
- For "intrinsic": In the first example, trust is a basic part of friendship. In the second, an internal (fundamental) desire to learn is shown. "Secret" and "unnecessary" don't fit.
- For "revulsion": The context of child abuse and a cheated - father situation implies strong negative feelings. "Interest" and "understanding" are positive or neutral, while "hatred" (strong negative) fits.
- For "speculate": The examples are about imagining (guessing) different historical outcomes or future events. "To remember" and "to announce" don't match the meaning of forming ideas about unknowns.
- For "virile": The male - heron example and men showing off masculinity point to having attractive male qualities. "Lacking in confidence" is the opposite, and "unselfish" is unrelated.

# Answer:
7. B. fundamental
