Correct Answer: happening


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option .

The blank can be filled with the gerund form of the verb "happen", that is, "happening", as it accurately describes that the action is about to happen. This helps in conveying the intended meaning of the sentence: that, as the vision was blurred, there was a sense that a terrible event was about to take place.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: A haze of panic blurred my vision; something terrible was close to happening .
