c. Facing the music soothes our mind
d. none of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

b. If she lied to me, then she'll just have to face the music.

Explanation:

The idiom 'face the music' actually means that one should face grim consequences for his/her actions.

So, in option b, the sentence means that she'll be in serious trouble if she lied to me.

The other options a and c mean that the people in the sentence are listening to music. Such options are given to confuse you. You have to be careful in choosing your option.
