Mr Ezeh … with some solutions to the issue.

Analyze the question: The sentence needs a verb that fits with "with some solutions to the issue." The subject is "Mr Ezeh" (singular, third person), and the sentence describes a completed action, so it needs a past tense verb.

Explain the concept: The phrasal verb "come up with" means to think of or produce an idea, plan, or solution. For example: "She came up with a brilliant idea." The preposition "with" in the sentence is the clue that points to this phrasal verb.

Step-by-step solution:

1. Spot the clue: the gap is followed by "with some solutions." The phrasal verb that takes "with" and relates to solutions is come up with.
2. Check the tense: the sentence has no helping verb and describes a finished action, so we need the past tense "came up with."
3. Test each option: • A. come up: Wrong. This is the base form. It does not agree with the singular subject "Mr Ezeh" in the past context (it would need "comes" in the present). • B. came up: Correct. "Mr Ezeh came up with some solutions to the issue." • C. flew up: Wrong. "Flew up with" makes no sense here. • D. brought up: Wrong. "Bring up" means to raise a topic or raise a child, and it is not followed by "with" in this sense.

Answer: Option B. came up

Tip: Memorize the phrasal verb "come up with" = think of / produce (an idea or solution). When you see "with" after the gap and the object is an idea, plan, or solution, this is almost always the answer. Then check that the tense and subject agreement are correct.
