(A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

✅ Correct Option: 1

Option 1 -> (A) "fill out" means to complete a form; (B) "cross out" means to delete by drawing a line; (C) "turn down" means to reject an offer; (D) "get away" means to escape.

Option 2 -> Incorrect matching: "cross out" doesn't fit with receiving a form to complete.

Option 3 -> Incorrect matching: Same issue as Option 2 with (A) and (B) swapped.

Option 4 -> Incorrect matching: "get away" doesn't make sense with receiving a form, and other matches are illogical.

Hence, Option 1: (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III) -> The phrasal verbs correctly match the context: forms are "filled out," mistakes are "crossed out," job offers can be "turned down," and robbers "get away" with loot -> correct
