Question and options
Choose the correct idiom/phrase for the word/group of words given in bold (shown here in capitals).
When he started the business, he never expected it TO GET HIM SUCH A LOT OF MONEY.
- to be a money spinner
- to be a go getter
- to be a life saver
- to be a deliverer
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A - to be a money spinner
A “money spinner” is a business or product that earns a lot of money, so the sentence becomes “he never expected it to be a money spinner”. A “go-getter” is an ambitious, energetic person, a “life saver” is someone or something that rescues one from difficulty, and a “deliverer” is a rescuer; none of them is about earning money.
