Answer 1

第一题中的第二句（完全可以更短些）是一个提示,说明说话者谈论的是精炼与否的问题.四个词中只有precise（精确）有这种含义.accurate表示正确,exact绝对正确、完全正确,relevant相关 .不过如果这句用concise会更合适.
第二题中 in the oral tradition（口头流传的形式） 是固定短语,和in the written form（书面形式）相对.
第三题.real可以表示“天然的、而非人造的”意思.authentic一般用来表示艺术品等人类创造物的真伪.actual往往含义“就是这个,就是同样的”的意思,如It is the actual piano that Beethoven（贝多芬）composed his famous Heroes Symphony (英雄交响曲）.
不过实际使用的时候,有时real和authentic有时会混用.
第四题.fake money是固定用法.
