being infested with termites

being hungry and thirsty

Explanation:

The phrase "a skeleton in the closet" is an idiom. Idioms are expressions that have a figurative meaning different from the literal meaning of the words. In this case, the figurative meaning is about having a secret one doesn't want to confess. The other options are literal interpretations of parts of the phrase (e.g., "closet" related to clothes, "skeleton" - termites might be a stretch but still not the idiomatic sense; "hungry and thirsty" has no relation).

Answer:

Having a secret one doesn't want to confess
