Replace the underlined common phrases with the right option.

He is well off these days.

  • A.poor
  • B.rich
  • C.happy
  • D.sad

Answer: B

Well off means rich.

To be well off is to be wealthy or financially comfortable: He is rich these days. The phrase is often used of a change in fortune, as the words these days suggest.

Poor is the opposite. Happy and sad describe feelings, not money; a well-off person may be either, so neither replaces the phrase.

The opposite phrase is badly off, meaning poor. Well off for something means having plenty of it: The town is well off for schools.
