After each of the following sentences, a list of possible interpretations of the sentence is given. Choose the…

Analyze the question: The sentence uses an idiom, "green fingers." You are asked what it means when applied to Bimpe, whose garden is beautiful.

Explain the concept: An idiom has a meaning that is different from the literal meaning of its words. "Green fingers" (British English; Americans say "green thumb") means a natural talent for gardening and making plants grow well.

Solution, step by step:

1. The clue in the sentence is "the beauty of Bimpe's garden." This points to gardening skill.
2. Option A (paints her finger green) is a literal reading, and nothing in the sentence supports it.
3. Option C (turns everything she touches to green) is an exaggerated literal reading. The idiom is about plants thriving, not about colour.
4. Option D (likes keeping green objects) misses the point. The idiom is about skill, not preference.
5. Option B (is good at growing plants) matches the idiom's meaning and fits the context of a beautiful garden.

Answer: B. is good at growing plants

Tip: In idiom questions, first reject the literal options, then use the context clue in the sentence (here, "garden") to confirm the figurative meaning. Related idioms to remember: "a green thumb/green fingers" = skilled at gardening, and "green with envy" = very jealous.
