Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
The elephant fell into a __________ the villagers had set for him in the long grass.

• A. track
• B. damp
• C. trap
• D. trick
• E. trip

Answer 1

The correct option is C trap

Hunters set traps or snares to catch animals. This is a very common phenomenon. 'Track' is 'way', 'damp' is 'slightly wet', 'trick' is a feat shown by a magician, 'trip' is a kind of falling generated by the subject himself, not dependent on another person. So, trap is the correct answer. Hence, option C is correct.
