Explanation:

1. For the first sentence: "laze around" means to be idle or loaf, so "loaf" matches this sentence.
2. For the second sentence: "discontinuation" can be related to "abeyance" (a state of temporary suspension), so "abeyance" matches this sentence.
3. For the third sentence: "objecting" in a critical or depreciating way, so "deprecating" (expressing disapproval or criticism) matches this sentence.

• "After finishing his races, the sprinter took a break to laze around and do nothing." → loaf
• "The lack of funds led to the discontinuation of the cosmetology program at school." → abeyance
