- Ain the gear
- Bout of gear
- Cabout
- Din spirits
Explanation
The idiom "thrown out of gear" means disrupted or thrown into disorder, which fits "life has been thrown ___ due to the weather conditions". "In the gear" would mean functioning smoothly - the opposite of the intended sense. "About" is meaningless here and "in spirits" means cheerful, which contradicts the context of disruption. Hence option B.
