Explanation
While many of the words make sense, the words slaughter and blood demand the correct pair.
Grief and anguish are an incorrect pair (grief is especially weird — generally, other people experience grief after someone dies, rather than a person feeling grief over his own violent death).
Hence options gore, carnage are correct!
