Pick the correct meaning of the expression At the back of one’s mind.
Note
At the back of one's mind means remembered but not thought about all the time. This answer is correct because the expression has a fixed figurative meaning in English. In an SSC idiom question, students should match the whole phrase with its accepted meaning rather than translate each word separately.
- Classroom example: At the back of one's mind can refer to a situation involving remembered but not thought about all the time.
- Story example: A writer may use At the back of one's mind when describing a situation involving remembered but not thought about all the time.
- Exam example: When a sentence contains At the back of one's mind, choose the meaning “remembered but not thought about all the time.”
