Quickly compare multiple VO takes in context

I often work with VO files that come to me as a .wav in which there are multiple takes of certain words or phrases that are recorded sequntially... in other words, the talent simply repeats the phrase or word with a different inflection, sometimes as many as 5 times. I have been cutting the segments and moving them to a new track and aligning them (see image), but I cannot seem to figure out a faster way to jump between takes than soloing and "un-soloing" or muting and unmuting. I set up a loop so it is just the immediately preceding and following few words, but it is still hard to manage to seamlessly swap which is played. I think it's called punching, but I'm not really sure? Either way, this is a huge time suck, and honestly I'm never sure if I'm getting the best combinations because I can't do a quick compare in context.
Any suggestions?
