The answer is ☀ someone having a lot of energy and is very active. The idiom "a live wire" means someone who is very energetic and has a lot of enthusiasm. It is a figurative expression that comes from the idea of an electrical wire that is carrying a current. This idiom is often used to describe someone who is always on the go and who is always up for new things. The other options are not correct interpretations of the idiom. A wire that may give shock to others is called a "live wire," but it is not the only meaning of the idiom. Unsafe wiring in a home or building is called "faulty wiring," and burning of a wire due to heavy load is called "overloading." None of these options accurately conveys the meaning of the idiom "a live wire." |
