    The expression ‘to see red’ means---

    ক)
    to become very angry
    খ)
    to draw blood
    গ)
    to be enthusiastic
    ঘ)
    to be lethargic

    Explanation

    The idiom 'to see red' directly relates to the physiological response associated with intense anger, where blood pressure rises, often visualized as seeing 'red'. This expression is universally understood in English to mean experiencing extreme fury or rage. Elimination: 'To draw blood' is a literal action, not the figurative meaning; 'to be enthusiastic' implies excitement, the opposite of rage; 'to be lethargic' means sluggishness, which is contrary to the high energy of anger.
