When you reserve something you set it back for future use.
When you preserve something you archive it so it doesn't age.
Both items can be used in the future.
Use the transitive property
Preserve:: Archive
If Preserve::Reserve then Archive::Reserve.
It doesn't.
Part of the problem stems from the inarticulate nature of the possible answers; they aren't logically consistent.
Same =/= similar
