What is the correct answer?

The head ____ was annoyed to see a ____ in the soup. The option that would best fill the blanks in the above sentence would be:
A. chief, house fly
B. chef, housefly
C. chief, house-fly
D. chef, house fly
Correct Answer :
B. chef, housefly
Sentence is about seeing a fly in a soup. This is major concern to a chef. Hence, options (a) and (c) are rejected. The word housefly is not hyphenated and a space in between house and fly changes the meanings of the sentence.
