Match List I with List II Choose the correct answer from the options given…

Concept

This is a matching task that pairs each List I heading with the one List II item it corresponds to. Three of the four List I headings (Programming Language, Operating System, Application Software) name categories of software, and the matching List II item is a concrete product that belongs to that category; the fourth heading, Internet, is closely tied to a specific network type, so its matching List II item (Wide Area Network) is the network term that corresponds to it rather than a subordinate example. The governing rule is to pair every List II item with the single List I heading it corresponds to, so that each heading gets exactly one match.

Application

Classify each List II item by what it actually is, then read off the unique pairing:

• C++ is a programming language used to write programs, so it fits category A (Programming Language).

• Windows XP is an operating system - the system software that manages hardware and runs other programs - so it fits category B (Operating System).

• The Internet and a Wide Area Network (WAN) name the same kind of large-scale network - the Internet is the world's leading real-world WAN - so among these four items, the WAN is the one that matches heading C (Internet).

• MS PowerPoint is an end-user application program used to make presentations, so it fits category D (Application Software).

Result

The correct correspondence is A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II.

Cross-check

Each List II item fits exactly one category and no category is left empty: C++ is a language (not an OS, network, or app), Windows XP is an OS (not a language), the WAN pairs with the Internet, and PowerPoint is an application. The one-to-one fit confirms the mapping is unique.
