Each clue in this puzzle represents two related words, both captured by a single definition. The shorter word is given. Can you supply the longer word, building it around the shorter word and without changing the order of its letters? The first letter of the shorter word is placed as a solving hint. The number of blanks indicates the number of letters in the longer word.

For example, given the clue

CONSUME FOOD (EAT)   _ E _ _ _ ,

the shorter word would appear as    _EA _T,

and the longer word would be FEAST.
