Question 1 Report

From the words lettered A to E, choose the word that best completes each of the following sentences.
Ngozi's soothing remarks were made to ....Femi's anger
Answer Details
The word that best completes the sentence is "mollify". This is because "soothing remarks" imply an attempt to calm someone down or ease their anger. "Mollify" means to soothe or pacify someone's anger, which fits the context of the sentence. The other options don't fit the context: "rekindle" means to ignite or revive, "incense" means to anger or irritate, "accommodate" means to adjust or make room for, and "petrify" means to turn someone to stone or terrify them.
