Question 1 Report

In the question below choose the word(s) or phrase(s) which best fill(s) the gap(s):

The manager was angry with Dauda for _____ seeds of discord among the workers

Answer Details
The best option to fill the blank is "sowing". "Sowing seeds of discord" is a common idiom, which means to intentionally cause problems or create divisions among people. "Planting" and "cultivating" do not fit well in the context of causing problems among workers. "Sewing" is a homophone of "sowing," but it does not fit the meaning of the sentence.
