   Answer & explanation

   Answer: C) To ignore someone deliberately

   'To send someone to Coventry' is a British idiom meaning to deliberately ignore someone; to refuse to speak to or associate with someone as a form of social punishment.
   Why the others are wrong:
   Option 1 — 'Award symbolic punishment' is too vague; the idiom specifically refers to social exclusion/ignoring.
   Option 2 — 'Exile to a faraway place' is a literal misinterpretation; Coventry is a real city, but the idiom is about social exclusion, not physical exile.
   Option 4 — 'Mock publicly' means to ridicule; the idiom is about silent exclusion, not active mockery.
