This is because "discharges" is the correct spelling of the verb form that means to release or let out, which is what is happening with the water in the sentence. "Dischargies" and "descharjes" are incorrect spellings and do not exist in standard English.

    A. Contain
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "contain" because it is the correct form of the verb to agree with the subject "rivers." The sentence is talking about the past, so the past tense form "contained" would also be acceptable. "Containes" and "countan" are incorrect spellings and do not match the subject or tense of the sentence.
