(1) mad
(2) lunatic
(3) mania
(4) No Improvement
Option 1: (1)
Option 2: (2)
Option 3: (3)
Option 4: (4)
Correct Answer: (2)
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Mental should be replaced with lunatic to convey the intended meaning.
The word mental is a more general term, while lunatic is a more specific term that refers to someone who is mentally ill or insane. Mania refers to a specific psychological condition characterised by excessive excitement or enthusiasm and out of context here. While mad can refer to mental illness, lunatic is more suited to the context.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: Torture and trauma have made her a lunatic patient.
