I'd like to 'take out' the person who came up with these answer options. Talk about a risky business!

Tolerate, translate, transport... Sounds like a game of Risk, but with even more risk involved!

Transport? Are we supposed to just move the risk to a different location? That's like putting a bandaid on a broken leg.

No, transporting risks means transferring them to another party, not physically moving them.

Translate? What, are we supposed to just translate the risk into another language and it'll go away? I'm pretty sure that's not how it works.

I think we need to tolerate some risks, but also take steps to mitigate them.

Exactly, we can't just translate risks away. We need to approach them in a different way.

Tolerate? Really? That's like saying 'just ignore the problem and hope it goes away.' I bet the right answer is something more proactive like 'take out' the risk.

I'm not sure, but I think it's between A) tolerate and D) take out. Tolerating risks can be a valid approach, but sometimes it's better to remove the risk altogether.

I agree with Douglass, because tolerating risks means accepting them without taking any action.
