Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 2: 1-c, 2-a, 3-d, 4-b

1. Social Map → c. Social Location: A social map helps identify an individual's position in society. Age, class, caste, religion, language, region, and other social identities together determine a person's social location and place them within a network of social relationships.

2. Social System → a. Social Structure: A social system refers to the pattern of social relationships and interactions that exist in society. These interconnected relationships and institutions together constitute the social structure.

3. Personal trouble → d. Depression: Personal troubles are individual worries, concerns, or difficulties experienced by a person. Depression is generally experienced at the individual level and is therefore an example of a personal trouble.

4. Generation Gap → b. Social issue: A generation gap refers to differences in attitudes, values, and expectations between younger and older generations. When such differences affect large groups and influence social relationships across society, they can be understood as a social issue.
