>let your hopes down and enjoy yourself, but there's always the nightmare of what to wear. In each question below, a sentence is given with a part of it printed in bold type. That part contains an idiom/phrasal verb that may be correct or erroneous. Each sentence is followed by phrases (A), (B), (C) and (D). Find out which is the correct idiom that should replace the error in bold, if there is any, and which makes the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and ‘No improvement required’, mark (E) as the answer.Solution
The correct idiom is ‘let your hair down’. It means ‘to allow yourself to behave much more freely than usual and enjoy yourself’. ‘let your hopes down’ does not suit here. They should be jolly occasions, a chance to let your hair down and enjoy yourself, but there's always the nightmare of what to wear.
