  • A.Mirage
  • B.Oasis
  • C.Delusion
  • D.None of the above

Answer: A

The word is mirage.

A mirage is an optical illusion caused by the bending (refraction) of light through layers of air at different temperatures, typically over hot ground. Light from the sky is bent upward to the eye, so it looks like a sheet of water on a desert or a hot road.

An oasis is a real fertile spot with water in a desert, not an illusion. A delusion is a false belief held in the mind, not a visual effect of the atmosphere, so 'None of the above' is also wrong.
