Find the appropriate word for blank 5.
Accrued position
Inured pain
Pain inflicted
Caused sufferings
Major Sufferers
Correct Answer is (c).The word in the blank must go with the preposition 'on' thus the word 'inflicted' which means 'cause (something unpleasant or painful) to be suffered by someone or something' fits here correctly. Option D and E do not fit here grammatically. The word 'accrued' means 'resulted from something' and does not make any sense here. The word 'inured' means' cause to accept or become hardened to' and does not convey any meaning here.
