Correct Answer: building up inside her


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Explanation: The verb building needs a preposition to convey the idea of increasing the intensity or strength of an emotion. The correct preposition to use in this construction is up . Therefore, the correct phrase is "building up inside her," which effectively communicates the growing intensity of Pooja's anger.

So, the correct sentence would be: "Pooja could feel the anger building up inside her."
