Question

Read this sentence from lines 11 through 14 of the story.

I hardly knew where I was, and I was completely oblivious to the audience, the strange
hall, even the adjudicator, though I knew she must be out there somewhere in the blur
of humanity beyond the stage, watching carefully and taking notes.
What is the meaning of the phrase "oblivious to" as it is used in this sentence?
A unaware of
B confused by
Cscornful of
Dafraid of

Answer 1

The answer is A.

The sentence states it as though the character was "oblivious" to an audience, suggesting that he/she was not aware of the audience.

The definition of Oblivious is:

"not aware of or not concerned about what is happening around one."

That means that the character was not aware of the audience, meaning that the answer would be A.) Unaware of.

Hope this helps.
