Answer: A) alone
Answer: a) alone
Explanation:
The sentence is: "In the absence of her parents, the little girl felt ."
• The word in brackets is "lonely", which means feeling sad because one is without company (अकेलापन महसूस करना).
• Alone = by oneself, without others (अकेला) → Correct synonym in this emotional context.
Why other options are incorrect:
• Collectively = together as a group (सामूहिक रूप से) → opposite of alone
• Crowded = full of people (भीड़भाड़ वाला) → not a synonym
• Sociable = friendly and outgoing (मिलनसार) → opposite of lonely feeling
Only "alone" matches the meaning and emotion of "lonely".
