(B) I ____ kept trying to read the newspaper by holding it away.	(I) just/further	"Just" means merely or simply; "further" refers to extending the distance to try and see better.
(C) I really had to decide whether to get ____ arms or a pair of ____ glasses,	(IV) longer/reading	This is a humorous setup where the real choice is between wishing for unnaturally long arms or getting the proper equipment (reading glasses).
(D) ____, I chose the ____ solution.	(II) eventually/easier	"Eventually" shows the choice was made after some time; "easier" refers to the more practical choice (glasses).
