Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To match the new names of the given companies with their respective old names, we need to identify the recent rebranding or changes in names for the listed companies. This is a factual knowledge-based question related to general awareness, particularly in the corporate world.

Let's analyze each pair:

1. Google: Google restructured its operations and launched a parent company under the name Alphabet in 2015. This was primarily to allow for more autonomy in their various business units. Thus, the new name for Google is Alphabet.
2. Facebook: In 2021, Facebook rebranded itself as Meta. This change was in alignment with its focus on building the metaverse, a new version of the internet featuring immersive virtual environments.
3. Phillippe Morris: Phillippe Morris, the tobacco company, changed its name to Altria in 2003 to distance its corporate identity from its tobacco-focused business.
4. McAfee: The security company McAfee was rebranded as Intel Security after Intel bought the company in 2010.

Based on the above information, the correct pairings are:

Old Name	New Name
A. Google	2. Alphabet
B. Facebook	3. Meta
C. Phillippe Morris	1. Altria
D. McAfee	4. Intel Security

Thus, the correct answer is A2, B3, C1, D4.
