Correct Answer: Discern the hidden meaning in the text


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

When someone is advised to read between the lines , it suggests looking beyond the literal words and identifying the implicit or concealed meaning in a text, statement, or situation. It involves understanding the subtext, unspoken nuances, or underlying messages that may not be explicitly expressed.

Therefore, the correct meaning of the idiom is: "Discern the hidden meaning in the text."
