Correct Answer: B
Solution :
In the given lines, the old man is worried that if his sons keep fighting among themselves, they will lose everything they have and others will take advantage of their fights. In sentence 6, the word 'encourage' can easily be replaced with the word 'persuade'. Both the words are synonymous to each other. Persuade means to induce someone to do something through reasoning or argument. And encourage means to persuade others to do or continue to do something by giving support and advice.You need to login to perform this action.
