Explanation:

1.

The verb is "cooperate", to form the corresponding noun, we add the suffix -ion (after adjusting the spelling: cooperate -> cooperation). The sentence talks about displaying good cooperation when working with others.

The verb is "contract" (here meaning to shorten), the corresponding noun is "contraction" (since we are creating a shortened form like "don't" from "do not", which is a contraction).

The verb is "collide", the corresponding noun is "collision" (when two cars collide, it's a collision).

Answer:

cooperation
