Answer :

  1. The correct answer is a. biased. When someone is 'biased,' it means they are unfairly prejudiced for or against something or someone. In this context, the teacher might be biased in favor of Ali because Ali is his son.

  2. The correct answer is b. defy. To 'defy' means to openly resist or refuse to follow something. Women have to defy old stereotypes to achieve full equality with men.

  3. The correct answer is d. have been. This is because the sentence is in the present perfect continuous tense, indicating that the state of being ill started in the past and is still continuing in the present.

  4. The correct answer is c. Ali needn't have gone to work an hour. This sentence means that Ali went to work even though it wasn't necessary, capturing the sense of the original sentence.
