Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → D only

Here's why:

  • Copy: This refers to making an identical replica of something.
  • Calling somebody: This refers to the action of making a phone call or using another method to summon someone.
  • Fearing something: This refers to experiencing apprehension or dread towards something.
  • Manage: This means to handle, control, or deal with something successfully.
