✅ Correct Option: 4
The blank needs a phrase describing deer movement that completes the pattern of road-related deer behaviors.Option 1 -> jumping under the road -> impossible and illogical; deer cannot jump underground.Option 2 -> foraging beneath the road -> nonsensical; deer don't forage underground beneath roads.Option 3 -> staggering with the road -> incorrect preposition and unclear meaning in this context.Option 4 -> bounding across the road -> describes natural deer movement that fits the context of road hazards.
When deer go bounding across the road, they leap energetically from one side to the other with their characteristic springy jumps. It's like watching nature's athletes in action, but unfortunately, this graceful movement often puts them directly in the path of oncoming traffic, creating dangerous situations for both deer and drivers.
