Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

(C) Only

(A) Only

(B) Only

(D) Only

Correct Answer:

(B) Only

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - (B) Only

  • The idiom "do away with" means to completely eliminate, abolish, or eradicate something.
  • Option (B) "eradicate" best captures this meaning, as it implies getting rid of something entirely.
  • The other options do not reflect this sense:
    • (A) "doing something" is too vague.
    • (C) "taking away" implies removal but not necessarily complete elimination.
    • (D) "going with" is unrelated.
