• D. 1-a, 2-c, 3-b, 4-d

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

1. Still waters run deep: still describes "waters", so it is an adjective.
2. wanted some stills for magazine: stills names a thing (photographs), so it is a noun.
3. makes me still my fears: still is the action being done to "fears", so it is a verb.
4. Will you still love me: still modifies the verb "love", so it is an adverb.

This gives noun-b, adjective-a, verb-c, adverb-d, so the correct answer is 1-b, 2-a, 3-c, 4-d.
