The children . . . . . . . . crackers to celebrate the victory of their team.

burst
fired
shot
broke E. released

The correct answer is burst.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Fired and shot imply that the crackers were aimed and launched at something, which is not the case in this situation.
  • Broke implies that the crackers were damaged, which is not the case in this situation.
  • Released does not accurately convey the idea of the crackers exploding.

The children burst crackers to celebrate the victory of their team. This means that they ignited the crackers, causing them to explode with a loud noise and a shower of sparks. This is a common way to celebrate special occasions, such as sporting victories.
