In the following question, an idiom or proverb has been underlined. Choose its correct meaning in the given context from the alternatives given below.
Her fame spread far and wide because she was a talented singer.
Answer: A
The phrase means Her fame grew.
If something spreads far and wide, it reaches a great many places and people. Her fame spreading far and wide means it grew and became widely known, which fits the reason given: she was a talented singer.
The phrase says nothing about her fame lessening or ending, and it describes fame that already existed, not fame that was just beginning.
For example: 'News of the discovery spread far and wide within a week.'
