Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Match the authors.
\[ \text{Caesar and Cleopatra} \rightarrow \text{George Bernard Shaw} \] \[ a \rightarrow iii \] \[ \text{Antony and Cleopatra} \rightarrow \text{William Shakespeare} \] \[ b \rightarrow iv \] \[ \text{Pride and Prejudice} \rightarrow \text{Jane Austen} \] \[ c \rightarrow ii \] \[ \text{Middlemarch} \rightarrow \text{George Eliot} \] \[ d \rightarrow i \] Thus, \[ a-iii,\quad b-iv,\quad c-ii,\quad d-i \] \[ {\text{Option (A)}} \]
