Which amongst the following option uses the correct phrasal verb ?

(A) The sand in his shoes weighed him in.
(B) The sand in his shoes weighed him out.
(C) The sand in his shoes weighed him down.
(D) The sand in his shoes weighed him up.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(C) Only

The correct answer is Option (3) → (C) Only

The correct phrasal verb in this context is "weighed down." When someone is "weighed down" by something, it means that they feel heavy or burdened by it. In this case, the sand in the person's shoes is causing them to feel weighed down, as if the weight of the sand is making it difficult for them to move freely. Therefore, option (C) is the correct choice because it uses the phrasal verb "weighed down" appropriately in the sentence.
