I put …… the light and slept. A. up B. down C. in D. out

up
down
in
out

The correct answer is: B. down

The other options are:

A. up: This is incorrect because it would mean that the person turned the light on.
C. in: This is incorrect because it would mean that the person went into the light.
D. out: This is incorrect because it would mean that the person turned the light off, but the question states that the person slept after turning the light off.

The sentence “I put down the light and slept” means that the person turned off the light and then went to sleep.
