参考答案
正确答案：AE
解析：
Answers: (A), (E)
The clues here are "row...not foment..." and "discord." Do not fall for the trap to think that the 'though' at the beginning signals that the sentence is a classic shift. It is not - essentially it is saying that the fight will not lead to very bad consequences, but they will still upset a people.
(A) means to irritate. This can work in the context. True, it is not upset (my word), but we only need a word to show that the people are not happy.
(B) is actually a positive word. It means to correct a person's false notion.
Neither (C) nor (D) makes sense. How could the fight between the prime minister and the ambassador lower the dignity of the people? We want a word that is a lesser degree of people taking to the streets and protesting.
(E) means to irritate.
(F) means to treat someone as inferior.
