    Question

    Select the option that gives the most appropriate meaning of the highlighted word.
    "Jack was given the responsibility of driving, as he was the only teetotaller."

    A.

    Person who habitually drinks to the point of losing control

    B.

    Person who completely abstains from intoxicating drinks like alcohol

    C.

    Person with imagination and creative potential

    D.

    Responsible citizen of the country with high self-esteem

    Correct option is B


    Explanation of the Correct Answer: · "Teetotaller" refers to a person who completely avoids alcoholic beverages.
    · Option (b) "Person who completely abstains from intoxicating drinks like alcohol" correctly defines the term.
    Why Are the Other Options Incorrect? · (a) "Person who habitually drinks to the point of losing control" → Incorrect; this is the opposite of a teetotaller.
    · (c) "Person with imagination and creative potential" → Incorrect; unrelated to the meaning of "teetotaller."
    · (d) "Responsible citizen of the country with high self-esteem" → Incorrect; this does not define "teetotaller."
    Thus, the correct sentence is:
    "Jack was given the responsibility of driving, as he was the only teetotaller."
