Question

Select the option that will improve the highlighted part of the given sentence.
I guessed her feelings when she started crying.

A.

estimated her emotions

B.

estimated her rejoinders

C.

estimated her reactions

D.

estimated her ripostes

Correct option is A

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (a) estimated her emotions.
Explanation: "Guessed her feelings" can be appropriately rephrased as “estimated her emotions” as it matches both contextually and semantically.
"Estimated" means made an approximation, and "emotions" match “feelings.”
Grammatical Rule Used:
Verb + object + noun form should agree in meaning and collocation.
Example:
I estimated her emotions from the way she looked at me.
Information Booster:
· Rejoinder = quick reply (उत्तर)
· Riposte = witty reply (चतुर उत्तर)
· These do not fit in the emotional context.
