Question:

Select the most appropriate meaning of the given idiom.

So far so good

Options:

Not impressed with how things are

Things are going well so far

No improvement in the work being done

Good things can go far away

Correct Answer:

Things are going well so far

Explanation:

The most appropriate meaning of the idiom "so far so good" is things are going well so far. It is used to express satisfaction with the way something is going, but it does not mean that things will necessarily continue to go well. The idiom comes from the idea of checking on something periodically to make sure that it is still going well.

The other options are not correct.

  • Not impressed with how things are: This is the opposite of so far so good.
  • No improvement in the work being done: This is not the same as so far so good.
  • Good things can go far away: This is not the same as so far so good.
