understand - понять в общем смысле этого слова
realize - осознать что-то
comprehend - постигать (например, смысл жизни)

Т.е. получается так:

understand - понимать
realize - осознавать
comprehend - постигать
?

Доп. задание:

Заполните пропуски comprehend, realize или understand:

1. She spoke so quickly that I could not … her.
2. It was 5 pm and they … that they were late.
3. The problem was so intricate (= запутанный) that no one could … it.
4. I don't like physics because I cannot … it.

1. understand
2. realize
3. comprehend
4. understand or comprehend (второе предпочтительнее)

Все верно.

ps 2. realize - в смысле realized
