List-I (Sentences)	List-II (Verbs)	Explanation
(A) He got used to ____ on the right side when he was in London.	(II) driving	The phrase "used to" requires the gerund ( $\text{Verb} + \text{ing}$ ) when it means accustomed to something.
(B) His desire is strongly _____ by his ambition to win the competition.	(IV) driven	This is the passive structure (is + past participle) indicating the desire is motivated by the ambition.
(C) Radha _____ to work everyday though her office is only half a mile away.	(I) drives	This is a regular, habitual action, requiring the Simple Present Tense (third person singular: drives).
(D) My boss _____ me home last night.	(III) drove	The time marker "last night" requires the Simple Past Tense (drove).
