1 cause controversy: This is the right answer. To "make waves (in an industry)" is to create controversy or generate debate.

1 say hello: This is incorrect. "To wave at someone" means to use a hand gesture to say "hello" or "goodbye", often from a distance. However, this is unrelated to "making waves".
1 create advertisements: This is incorrect. Creating, designing, or writing advertisements is unrelated to "making waves".
1 attack competitors: This is incorrect. To attack competitors or the opposition is unrelated to "making waves".
2 a movement on water: This is the right choice. A "wave" is a movement or swell on water, especially in the sea. Surfers need waves to have fun! In other contexts, "a wave" can describe a social or artistic movement: "the new wave of French cinema", or a hand movement used to say "hello" or "goodbye": "I waved to Charles, but he didn't see me".
2 a type of contract: This is incorrect. Perhaps you were thinking of "a waiver", which is a contract in which you renounce or sacrifice your rights to something. We often sign waivers before undertaking dangerous activities such as bungee jumping!
2 an excited sound: This is incorrect. A sound which we make when we are excited about something is never called "a wave".
2 envy or jealousy: This is incorrect. "Envy" and "jealousy" are wanting what other people have, or resenting them for being better than you. This is unrelated to the term "wave".
