List-I	List-II	Explanation	Example
(A) A hungry man is an angry man	(II) Someone deprived of necessities can't be placated	This proverb says that a person whose basic needs (food, pay, shelter) are not met becomes irritable, and words alone will not calm him. Only meeting the need will. "Deprived of necessities" is the hungry man, and "can't be placated" (cannot be calmed) is his anger.	Promises did not quiet the unpaid workers. A hungry man is an angry man.
(B) You can't have your cake and eat it too	(I) You cannot enjoy two contradictory benefits	Once a cake is eaten it is gone, so one cannot both keep it and eat it. The proverb means that when two advantages exclude each other, one must choose. This is List-II (I).	You want to spend all your pocket money and still save for a bicycle, but you can't have your cake and eat it too.
(C) A chain is only as strong as its weakest link	(IV) A team or system depends on its weakest part	A chain breaks at its weakest link, however strong the other links are. In the same way, a team or system fails where its weakest member or part fails, which is List-II (IV).	One careless guard let the thief in. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.
(D) The proof of the pudding is in the eating	(III) The real test of something is how it works in practice	A pudding is judged by tasting it, not by its look or its recipe. The proverb means that a thing is proved good or bad only when it is actually used, which is List-II (III).	The new syllabus sounds fine, but the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
