Correct Answer: 3


Solution : The correct answer is the third option because in the third option 'got carried away' is a phrasal verb which means to get overly engrossed due to excitement or enthusiasm. It completes the intended meaning of the sentence.

Therefore the complete statement is ''The young man got carried away by the passionate appeal made by the social worker."
