- AA-2, B-4, C-3, D-1
- BA-4, B-3, C-2, D-1
- CA-1, B-3, C-2, D-4
- DA-4, B-3, C-1, D-2
Explanation
“Discreet” (careful, tactful about secrets) matches 2; “Discrete” (separate, distinct) matches 4 — the classic discreet/discrete pair. “Desecrate” (to violate what is sacred) matches “Defile” (3). “Decrepit” (worn out by age) matches “Decaying” (1). This gives A-2, B-4, C-3, D-1, which is option (a).
