"After a long day, Maya sat by the window in a state of being pleasantly lost in her thoughts."Answer & explanation
Answer: C) Reverie
Meaning: reverie = a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream *(दिवास्वप्न, सुखद विचार-मग्नता)*.
*Maya sat by the window* in a reverie*.*
Answer: (3) Reverie
Why the others are wrong.
• euphoria = intense excitement and happiness *(अत्यधिक उल्लास)* — joyful, but not *lost in thought*.
• solitude = the state of being alone *(एकांत)* — describes being by oneself, not daydreaming.
• delirium = a confused, disturbed state of mind, often from illness *(सन्निपात, प्रलाप)* — the opposite of *pleasant*.
*Reverie rhymes with "dreamery" — a pleasant daydream.*
