Options:

A

C

D

Correct Answer:

A

Explanation:

Correct answer is OPTION 1-  A

Option 1 (If I were young again!) is correct because it follows the order of - "If" + subject + wish + "!"
Option 2 (What if I were young again! )is incorrect because the meaning of the sentence is changed.
Option 3 (Hurray! I were young again )is incorrect because 'hurray' is used to show extreme joy not wish.

Option 4 ("Alas! I were young again") implies sadness and resignation, rather than the desired yearning and excitement.
