answer explanation:
<p>The correct answer is <strong>(D) come</strong>.</p>
<p>In this sentence, the managers are trying hard to come up with a new strategy. The phrasal verb "come up with" means to think of or produce something, in this case, a new strategy. The verb "come" is followed by the preposition "up" and the adverb "with". Therefore, option (D) "come" is the correct verb to use in this sentence.</p>
<p>Options (A) "think", (B) "go", and (C) "take" do not convey the intended meaning of actively producing or creating a new strategy. Therefore, they are not appropriate choices for this sentence.</p>
