Correct Answer: Meeting someone not expected to be at a certain place.


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The phrase "it's a small world" is often used to express surprise or amazement when encountering someone in an unexpected or unlikely place, especially when it's discovered that there is a connection between individuals who, by chance, happen to share some common background or connection.

Therefore, the correct meaning is meeting someone not expected to be at a certain place.
