A. Rum I. 20 to 30 per cent
B. Port II. 2 to 5 per cent
C. Champagne III. 51 to 59 per cent
D. Beer IV. 10 to 13 per cent
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
• B. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
• C. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
• D. A-III, B-II, C-IV, D-I

Hint:

Distilled drinks (rum) → high alcohol; Beer → low; Wines → moderate.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Different alcoholic beverages contain varying percentages of alcohol depending on their method of preparation (fermentation or distillation).

Step 1: Rum (A).
Rum is a distilled alcoholic beverage and contains a high percentage of alcohol, typically around 40–60%.
Thus, A $\rightarrow$ III (51–59%).

Step 2: Port (B).
Port wine is a fortified wine containing moderate alcohol levels, typically around 20–30%.
Thus, B $\rightarrow$ I.

Step 3: Champagne (C).
Champagne is a sparkling wine with alcohol content around 10–13%.
Thus, C $\rightarrow$ IV.

Step 4: Beer (D).
Beer is a fermented beverage with low alcohol content, typically 2–5%.
Thus, D $\rightarrow$ II.

Step 5: Final matching.
\[ A-III,\quad B-I,\quad C-IV,\quad D-II \] Final Conclusion:
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
