Correct Answer: turned out


Solution : The first option correctly fills in the blank.

The phrasal verb "turned out" is the most suitable choice in this context. When someone says, "The lady turned out to be a close relative of ours," it means that it was revealed that the lady is indeed a close relative. It fits the context of a surprising or unexpected discovery.

"Turned in": It means to submit something like homework or a report.

"Turned up": It means to appear or arrive.

"Turned about": It means to change direction or reverse.

Therefore, the sentence is, "The lady turned out to be a close relative of ours."
