Correct option is A
The correct option to fill in the blank is (
a)
cereal, serial.
“Morning
cereal” refers to a grain-based breakfast food; a
serial is a TV show presented in a series of episodes. Hence, the first blank needs
cereal (breakfast), and the second blank needs
serial (TV). (Hindi:
cereal = अनाज/नाश्ते का दलिया,
serial = धारावाहिक)
Example: She poured milk over her
cereal and switched on her favorite
serial.
