Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve the problem, we need to correctly match each phrasal verb from "List I" with its corresponding meaning in "List II". Let's go through each option:

1. Run across: The phrasal verb "run across" means to meet or find by chance. This matches with meaning II.
2. Run down: The phrasal verb "run down" is typically used to denote when something loses power or stops working, aligning with meaning I.
3. Run into: This phrasal verb means to meet by chance. Therefore, it matches with meaning IV.
4. Run on: The phrase "run on" indicates continuing without stopping. This matches with meaning III.

Thus, the correct pairings are:

• A-II: Run across - To meet or find by chance
• B-I: Run down - To lose power or stop working
• C-IV: Run into - To meet by chance
• D-III: Run on - To continue without stopping

Therefore, the correct answer is: A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III.
