✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 1 -> Matches "stunning" with Mumbai's weather (inappropriate), "innovative" with teacher's explanation (doesn't fit context).

Option 2 -> Correctly pairs "humid" with Mumbai's weather, "comprehensive" with explanation, "innovative" with artist's work, and "stunning" with sunset view.

Option 3 -> Matches "innovative" with weather (illogical), "humid" with explanation (doesn't make sense).

Option 4 -> Matches "stunning" with weather and "humid" with sunset view (both contextually incorrect).

Hence, Option 2: (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (III) -> Mumbai's coastal location makes its weather "humid"; a teacher's thorough explanation is "comprehensive"; an artist's creative work is "innovative"; and an ocean sunset view is "stunning" -> correct
