Fill in the blank with the appropriate option to make a meaningful sentence.
The abstract storyline will not _______ with the masses.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → go down
To go down (with someone) means to be received or accepted by people in a particular way; it is often used as "go down well/badly with". The sentence says that an abstract storyline will not be liked or accepted by ordinary viewers, so it "will not go down with the masses".
Complete sentence: The abstract storyline will not go down with the masses.
Example: The new school timings did not go down well with the parents.
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: go by — Incorrect. Go by means to pass (of time) or to follow or judge by something; "go by with the masses" makes no sense.
Example: Never go by appearances alone.
Option 2: go into — Incorrect. Go into means to examine or describe in detail, or to enter a profession; it does not express how something is received.
Example: The report goes into the causes of the accident.
Option 4: go through — Incorrect. Go through means to experience something difficult or to examine something carefully; it does not fit "with the masses".
Example: The family went through hard times after the flood.
