Replace the underlined common phrases with the right option.

I am in a fix and fail to understand whether I should help him or not.

  • A.satisfied
  • B.confused
  • C.angry
  • D.None of these

Answer: B

In a fix means confused.

To be in a fix is to be in a difficult or awkward situation where one does not know what to do. The rest of the sentence makes the sense clear: the speaker cannot decide whether to help him or not.

Satisfied is the opposite of the uncertainty described, and angry is a different feeling altogether. Since confused fits, "None of these" is wrong.

Similar idioms for a difficult position are in a spot, in a jam and in a dilemma, the last used when there are two choices, as here.
