Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The correct choice is the second option " filled with smoke".
It is the correct choice because it accurately describes the condition of the room. When we say a room is "filled with smoke", it means that there is a significant amount of smoke in the room, which matches the intended meaning.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- By smokes : It suggests that the room is smoky because of the action of "smokes", which doesn't convey the intended meaning.
- With smokes : It is not a suitable phrase in this context. "With smokes" is not commonly used to describe a smoky room.
Therefore, the correct sentence is "The room is filled with smoke ".
