Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Concept
Personal guidance is the part of a teacher's professional duty that requires proactively helping people manage social, emotional, or behavioural difficulties through direct, supportive intervention -- rather than avoidance, passivity, or delegating the problem to someone else. A teacher who witnesses a safety-affecting situation, such as children fighting, is expected, where it is safe to do so, to respond first-hand rather than assume someone else will act, regardless of whether those children are formally under the teacher's charge.
Application
Here the children are fighting on a road -- a public space carrying real physical risk. The professionally correct response is to approach the children directly, calm them down, and counsel them on why fighting is harmful and how to settle their disagreement peacefully. This single act addresses both the immediate safety concern and the underlying dispute at the same time.
Cross-check / Contrast
Ignoring the situation and walking away leaves an active safety risk unaddressed -- passivity does not resolve anything and falls short of the constructive response expected of a teacher on the scene.
Handing the task of resolving the dispute to other people avoids taking any personal action yourself -- deferring to bystanders is not the same as the teacher stepping in directly.
Telling the children to run away turns a resolvable disagreement into a flight response and adds real danger on a road instead of removing it.
Approaching the children and pacifying them with calm, reasoned advice is the only response among these that directly resolves both the safety risk and the disagreement -- a firm, first-hand act of guidance rather than avoidance, delegation, or flight.
