UNIT 1– Question 1

1. The cartoon suggests that the person A feels liberated. B is embarrassed. C seeks acknowledgement. D is enjoying their solitude

The answer is C.

A person is shown in the cartoon standing in front of a window without any trousers on, and people can see them from the outside. Not only is the person waving to onlookers, but they also have a big smile on their face, suggesting that they are looking for praise and recognition from others. The person wants recognition, so C is the right response.

The person appears to be standing comfortably without trousers on, and their facial expression suggests that they are at ease, which supports Option A, “feels liberated,” as a possible interpretation. It’s more likely that they are seeking attention than feeling liberated, though, given that they are waving and grinning at the passersby.

It’s natural to feel embarrassed in such circumstances, so option B, “is embarrassed,” may also be a viable interpretation. The individual’s body language and facial expression, though, don’t appear to indicate embarrassment.

Because the person is standing in front of a window, which suggests that they are purposefully exposing themselves to the people outside, Option D, “is enjoying their solitude,” is unlikely.
