SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 87

SSC CGL Tier II - 26 October 2023 • English • Q87

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.

The girl was ________ as she was drenched in the rain.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. cold.

The word "cold" is appropriate because it describes the physical sensation experienced when someone is drenched in the rain.

When a person gets wet from the rain, they often feel cold.

The other options—"bolt," "gold," and "tight"—do not relate to the sensation of being wet and chilly, making "cold" the correct choice.
