Select the correct pair of homonyms to fill in the blanks.
What she _______ is that he is a _______ person.

Correct option is A

The correct option to fill in the blanks is (a) meant, mean.
Explanation: In the first blank, we need the past tense of mean to report or clarify what she intended: “What she meant …” In the second blank, we need the adjective mean meaning unkind/malicious: “… he is a mean person.” (Hindi: meant = अर्थ कहना/इरादा रखना का भूतकाल; mean (adj.) = कंजूस/घटिया/निर्दयी).
Example: What she meant is that he is a mean person who never helps anyone.
Explain why other options are incorrect:
· (b) grown, groaned: grown (V3 of grow) and groaned (made a low sound) do not fit the meanings or grammar. (Hindi: grown = बढ़ा हुआ, groaned = कराहा).
· (c) mean, meant: This yields “What she mean is that he is a meant person” — incorrect tense in the first blank and meant is not an adjective to describe a person.
· (d) growing, grown: Progressive/participle forms that don't match the sense of intend and an adjective for character; semantically illogical here.
