READ THE PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUES.
A gang of professional kidnappers in Bihar abducts men who demand dowry and gets them to marry the women without taking money. The gang, led by Hukam Singh (Jaaved Jaaferi), presumably does well for itself, since Hukam lives in what appears to be a palace. The men dragooned into marriage are miserable. The women should be too, but aren’t.
According to the sentence, what is expected from the women?

A

A)Wretched

B

B)Troubled

C

C)Injured

D

D)Downtrodden

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Wretched when used as an adjective, means to be in a very unhappy or unfortunate state.
Troubled, as an adjective, means beset by problems or difficulties.
Injured as an adjective, means harmed, damaged, or impaired.
Downtrodden as an adjective, means oppressed or treated badly by people in power.
Elated as an adjective, means very happy and excited because of something good that has happened, or will happen.
The last sentence in the stanza says that men are miserable, and women should be too. This means that women were expected to be miserable or unhappy. Hence, the correct answer is A.
