SSC Stenographer - 13 Oct 2023 - Shift 3 • English • Q50

Back to paper

Select the most appropriate idiom that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence.
“I don't feel like hanging out today. I'm feeling a bit unwell.”

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. under the weather.

  • "Under the weather" is the idiom that means feeling unwell or sick, which directly matches the context of the sentence describing feeling a bit unwell.

  • The other idioms do not fit the context:

    • "Under the coat" is not a common idiom and does not convey illness.
    • "Over the moon" means very happy or excited, which is the opposite of feeling unwell.
    • "Near the horizon" is not an idiom related to health or feelings and is used more literally to indicate something approaching.
