Fill in the blank with the correct homophone:
In the dense forest, a mother __________ and her cubs roamed freely, enjoying the tranquillity of their natural habitat.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. bear.
- "Bear" is the correct homophone because it refers to the animal, which makes sense in the context of a mother and her cubs roaming in a forest.
- The other options—"bare" (meaning without covering), "beer" (a drink), and "Ber" (which is not a word)—do not fit the context of describing animals in a natural habitat.
