The correct answer is Option (3) - Cry over spilt milk
- Cry over spilt milk: This idiom means to lament or regret something that has already happened and cannot be changed, which fits the context of careless students regretting their lack of preparation during exams.
Other Options
- Cry for the moon: This means to long for something impossible or unattainable, which doesn't fit the context.
- Clip one's wings: This means to restrict someone's freedom or power, which is unrelated to the situation of students during exams.
- Close share: This is not a standard idiom, so it doesn't apply.
