English
2 answers:
Gelneren [198K]3 years ago

The correct answer is A. I want to look for my watch, but I never seem to find the time.

Explanation:

A pun is a play of words commonly based on expressions or words that have two meanings or two words or expressions that sound similar which are used for humor. This can be seen in the sentence "I want to look for my watch, but I never seem to find the time" because in this sentence the expression "find the time" has two meanings as this generally means to have time for some activity but in this case it means to look at the watch and determine the time, which creates a humorous sense based on different meanings this expression  has.

The fist answer choice is correct, "<span>I want to look for my watch, but I can never seem to find the time." This is because it fits the definition of a pun. Hope this helps :)</span>
