Answer:
Punitive
Explanation:
There is nothing like punitive alimony, the purpose of alimony is not punitive, rather, it is to support the spouse after separation. Four major types of alimony are; periodic alimony, lump sum alimony, rehabilitative alimony, and reimbursement alimony.
Lump Sum Alimony is awarded as a fixed sum that can be paid all at once or in installments and temporary alimony is an order for support that comes during a divorce, legal separation or even an annulment case after one party has filed such a request with the court.

Hi!
Your answer is B.
It is <u><em>not</em></u> A because this doesn't really make sense. It's not the best answer.
It <u><em>is</em></u> B because, in sentences, the words around it will likely give the information you need to infer what the word means.
(For example, if I were to say "<em>She was </em><u><em>continuously</em></u><em> singing, for yesterday she sang for 4 straight hours, and it was extremely annoying</em>", pretend you do not know what "continuously" means. By using the words around it, such as "4 straight hours" you can predict that it means "never stopping".)
It is <u><em>not</em></u> C because not every single sentence contains a synonym or antonym.
(See the sentence above. The antonym of "continuously" would be 'never' or 'sometimes' or possibly 'discontinous'. There isn't always an antonym or synonym there, is there?)
It is <u><em>not</em></u> D because not every single word is defined in a passage.
(When you open an average book, is there just an entire page(s) dedicated to every single definition of a word? Most often, no, there is not.)
Mostly because the Roman empire was a hugely vast empire in time where the internet or any other form of fast communication possibilities didn't exist yet. For this reason, it would be highly unpractical for Rome to rely on having direct democracy and each person giving his vote on every aspect of life.
