Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is 'twinkling'.
Key Points
- The word "twinkling" is the most appropriate to describe stars in the sky because it refers to the shimmering or flickering effect seen from Earth.
- The other options: "burning," "turning," and "tinkling" do not fit the context as accurately.
Therefore, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.
Complete Sentence: One or two stars were still twinkling in the sky.
Additional Information
- Burning: refers to something on fire, which is not the correct description for stars visible in the sky.
- Turning: means rotating or changing direction, which does not fit the context here.
- Tinkling: refers to a light, clear ringing sound, which is unrelated to stars.
