Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the context of each statement.
We need to match the statements made by Shanthala (Column-I) with the appropriate responses given by Kanishk (Column-II).
P. "This house is in a mess."
The best response would be: "No problem, let me clear it up for you." Kanishk is offering to help with the situation, which matches this statement.
Q. "I am not happy with the marks given to me."
The appropriate response would be: "Don’t worry, I will take it up with your teacher." Kanishk is reassuring Shanthala that their concern about marks will be addressed.
R. "Politics is a subject I avoid talking about."
The correct response here would be: "Alright, I won’t bring it up during our conversations." This indicates that Kanishk will avoid discussing politics.
S. "I don’t know what this word means."
The most appropriate response is: "Well, you can easily look it up." This suggests that Kanishk is offering a straightforward solution to Shanthala’s problem.
Step 2: Identifying the correct match.
From the analysis above, we match the following:
P – 3: "This house is in a mess." → "No problem, let me clear it up for you."
Q – 4: "I am not happy with the marks given to me." → "Don’t worry, I will take it up with your teacher."
R – 1: "Politics is a subject I avoid talking about." → "Alright, I won’t bring it up during our conversations."
S – 2: "I don’t know what this word means." → "Well, you can easily look it up."
Therefore, the correct answer is Option (B) P – 3; Q – 4; R – 1; S – 2.
