Correct answer: D

The question asks to identify appropriate maxims of teaching based on established pedagogical principles.

Standard maxims of teaching include:

- Simple to Complex: Concepts should be introduced from simple ideas to complex ones.

- Concrete to Abstract: Learning should begin with concrete examples before moving to abstract concepts.

- Analysis to Synthesis: Breaking down information (analysis) should precede combining it into a whole (synthesis).

Options B (Rural to Urban) and E (Low IQ to High IQ) are not recognized pedagogical maxims. Therefore, the correct combination is A, C, and D.

Correct Answer: Option 3 (A, C and D only).
