Pique as a verb, to irritate, "wound the pride of," or "arouse (curiosity, interest, etc.)"; as a noun, ill-
feeling or resentment -- 'the rustling sound of the plastic bag piqued the kitten's interest.' The verb
form of pique will always have an object that receives the action --> the subject is the plastic bag, the

interest.
Peak as a verb, "reach the highest value," crest, top out, culminate; as a noun, it is the highest point or a

case, though the sentence presents a time line of events, they are not necessary to express the complete
thought contained in just the subject, the fever, and the verb, peaked. This verb requires no object.
Roll is to rotate or move "by turning on an axis" -- 'the old saw about rolling with the punches is rarely
comforting when the situation becomes difficult.'
Role is a function, or an actor's part -- 'since I've been in this role, the department's revenues have
doubled.'

when stress became too great.'
