Correct Answer: brightened up when they


Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.

The phrase "brightened up" is an idiomatic expression that means to become happier, more cheerful, or more optimistic. In this context, "brightened up" is the appropriate choice to convey the idea that Amal became happier when they said he could go with them.

Therefore, the sentence would be: "Amal brightened up when they said he could go with them."
