Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Option 1 -> (A)-(I) "put across" means to communicate, not present to a judge; incorrect matching.

Option 2 -> (A)-(II) "put before", (B)-(IV) "suffering from", (C)-(I) "going across", (D)-(III) "popular among" - all are correct idiomatic expressions.

Option 3 -> (A)-(III) "put among" is grammatically incorrect; (B)-(II) "suffering before" doesn't make sense.

Option 4 -> (A)-(IV) "put from" is incorrect; (B)-(III) "suffering among" is not idiomatic.


Hence, Option 2 -> "Put before" means to present for consideration, "suffer from" indicates experiencing illness, "going across" means crossing, and "popular among" refers to being liked by a group - all correct prepositional usages -> correct
