हिंदी में हम बार-बार कहते हैं 'अपने आप को सँभालो'। Act यानी आपके actions; उन्हें together यानी इकट्ठा कीजिए, बिखरने मत दीजिए। Get your act together यानी ख़ुद को organise करके असरदार ढंग से काम करना।

In Hindi we keep saying 'apne aap ko sambhalo' (pull yourself together). Act means your actions; bring them together and do not let them scatter. Getting your act together means organising yourself so that you work effectively.

Exam note

Answer 'to organise yourself to do things effectively' है; pull yourself together synonym है, fall apart उल्टा।

The answer is 'to organise yourself to do things effectively'; pull yourself together is a synonym, while fall apart is the opposite.
