Select the option that can be used as a one-word substitute for the underlined group of words.

There was a huge fire for celebration on the occasion of Diwali.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

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

"Bonfire" is a large, controlled outdoor fire used for celebration or social gatherings, which fits the description of "a huge fire for celebration."

The other options—"Lohri" (a festival that involves a bonfire but is not the fire itself), "Flash" (a sudden burst of light), and "Firecracker" (a small explosive device used for celebration but not a large fire)—do not accurately match the given description.
