Correct option is C
The correct option to fill in the blank is (c)
nose.
Explanation: The set phrase is
stuffy nose, meaning nasal congestion due to a cold;
नाक बंद होना/जाम नाक. Among the homophones, only
nose (body part) fits the medical context.
Example:
After catching the flu, he suffered from a
stuffy nose
and headaches.
Why other options are incorrect:
·
(a) knows: verb (3rd person singular of
know);
जानता/जानती है—grammatically and semantically inappropriate.
·
(b) news: information reports;
समाचार—does not collocate with
stuffy.
·
(d) noose: looped rope;
फंदा—wrong meaning.
