Dhruv’s anger blazed of uncontrollably

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. anger blazed up.

The phrase "blazed up" is used to describe something that suddenly becomes very intense or strong, similar to how a fire might suddenly flare up.

In the sentence "Dhruv’s anger blazed up uncontrollably," this phrase suggests that Dhruv's anger quickly intensified and became difficult to control, much like how a fire can suddenly become more fierce. The use of "blazed up" effectively communicates the rapid escalation of his emotions.
