Answer:
Answer
Homophones are words that have the same or similar pronunciations, but different meanings. 'Bare' and 'bear' are homophones.
Options A and B:
'Bare' means 'without covering or clothing', 'naked'.
It is relevant to the given sentence, as the person 'he' competed in the race without any covering over his feet, that is, shoes.
'Bear' means 'to hold up or support'. This word does not fit into the sentence in meaning.
Hence option B is correct and A is incorrect.
Options C and D are incorrect for the same: C cannot be correct because A is incorrect, and D cannot be correct because B is correct.
