One way to see which word is correct, is trying out each word in the blanks as shown:
Law enforcement (seasoned) his property after they discovered new evidence. This does not make sense!
You must also know the defenition of the words!! Ceased means to come to an end. Seized means to take ownership in. So now, which one makes the most sense? Since seized means to take ownership in, you now need to connect the dots; Law enforcement discovered new evidence, meaning that this owner must be a criminal. So, they are taking ownership of the property.
Answer: Law enforcement seized his property after they discovered new evidence.
