The surgeon cut through the first layer of skin.

Explanation:

In this case, the word "cut" makes sense in the sentence because "cut" is an action a surgeon might make on skin.

Also the word "through" is a context clue that suggests the nature of the appropriate action word, because the verb you choose must make sense when followed by the directional word "through."
