Correct Answer: (3)


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The phrase bear with is the correct expression to convey the idea of enduring or tolerating something, such as noise in this context. Bear with means to be patient or tolerate a difficult or challenging situation.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Bear off means to steer or turn away.

  • Bear away refers to steering a ship or boat in a direction away from the wind.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: " If you are living in the crowded part of the city, then you should be ready to bear with the noise. "
