Correct answer: C
Correct matching: (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II).
The four "modes" in List I describe how many senders address how many receivers, and each maps to a recognised level/type of communication in List II:
(A) One-to-one -> (III) Inter-personal: a direct exchange between two people, e.g. a face-to-face conversation.
(B) One-to-many -> (IV) Mass Communication, especially print: a single source sends a message through a medium (newspaper, TV, radio) to a large, anonymous, heterogeneous audience.
(C) Many-to-many -> (I) Network (Transactional): several participants send and receive simultaneously in a networked, two-way (transactional) flow, e.g. a group chat or social network.
(D) One-to-none -> (II) Intra-personal: communication a person has with oneself - self-talk, reflection, imagination - with no external receiver.
Hence the correct option is (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II).
