Select the correct conclusion based on the meaning of the highlighted word.
Statement: My parents think that my problems are small potatoes.
Conclusion:
I. His parents take him for granted.
II. His parents find his problems funny.
III. His parents think that his problems are unimportant.

Correct option is B

Option (b) is the correct answer.
· The expression "small potatoes" is an idiomatic phrase that means something is insignificant, unimportant, or trivial.
· Based on the meaning:
· Conclusion III correctly states that his parents think his problems are unimportant, which directly aligns with the meaning of small potatoes.
· Conclusion I ("His parents take him for granted") is incorrect because taking someone for granted means not appreciating them, which is a broader and different idea. The statement only talks about their perception of the problems as small, not about their appreciation for him personally.
· Conclusion II ("His parents find his problems funny") is also incorrect. Finding something funny implies amusement or laughter, which is not conveyed by calling something small potatoes. It only implies triviality, not humor.
Thus, only conclusion III is correct.
