Correct Answer: sore


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Sore means a raw and painful place on one's body. It is the correct choice, as it helps convey the intended meaning of the sentence that even a small cut can turn painful if left unattended.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Soar means to increase rapidly above the usual level.
  • Sour means having an acidic taste like lemon or vinegar.
  • Ore is a naturally occurring solid material from which a material is extracted.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: If left unattended, even a small cut can turn into a sore.
