Explanation
"Incensed" means enraged or furious. "Incendiary" (as in an incendiary bomb) means designed to cause fires. "Incautious" means unmindful of potential risks, i.e. careless. "Incandescent" means giving out light when heated to a high temperature. The correct pairing is therefore A-4, B-1, C-2, D-3, which is option C. Note: official key disputed — the keyed B (A-3, B-2, C-1, D-4) pairs every word with the wrong meaning; "incensed" cannot mean "giving out light when heated" and "incandescent" cannot mean "enraged".
