Answer 1

Hint: Idioms may have literal as well as metaphoric meanings. You must know which idiom has which kind of meaning and solve accordingly.

Complete answer:
An idiom is a group of words established by usage as having a meaning not deducible from those of the individual words
‘A’ and ‘an’ are indefinite nouns: they refer to those nouns that are non-specific, their identity is not made known. For e.g. ‘a man’, ‘a' duck in the 'pond’, etc.
Now, let us examine all the given options to find out the correct answer :
Option 'a' - This phrase is sometimes used as an ironic comment on an unpleasant but not abnormal situation. This phrase means - expected and normal. It cannot be the correct answer.
Option ‘b' - it means to buy one thing and get the other free. It cannot be the correct answer as well.
Option ‘c' - it means - not having been protected from sun, wind, or rain and so marked or damaged by them
Option 'd' - it means - to have a great deal (or too much) to cope with, as in What with the new baby and the new house, they have a lot on their plate, or I can't take that on now; I've got too much on my plate already.
Hence, the correct option is option ‘d’. The complete sentence would be – I haven’t had fun in ages. I’ve too much on my plate right now.
Here, the other three options are nonconceptual and can't fit in the given blank. Having 'too much on my plate' signifies that the speaker is not able to have fun because he is very busy with his other important chores.

Note:
 All the other options are plausible distractions. Check if all the other options match the tense of the given sentence. Metaphoric meanings don't usually link with that of the literal ones.
