The given question requires us to match each person in List I with their corresponding position/organization in List II. Let`s analyze each option to determine the correct answer:

Option 1: A-2, B-1, C-3, D-4

According to this option, Nancy Pelosi (A) is matched with "Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives" (2), Margaret Chan (B) is matched with "WTO" (1), Steve Ballmer (C) is matched with "WHO" (3), and Microsoft (D) is matched with 4. This option is incorrect because it wrongly associates Nancy Pelosi with the position of "Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives." In reality, Nancy Pelosi is the former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, not the current one.

Option 2: A-4, B-3, C-1, D-2

According to this option, Nancy Pelosi (A) is matched with "Microsoft" (4), Margaret Chan (B) is matched with "WHO" (3), Steve Ballmer (C) is matched with "WTO" (1), and there is no match for Microsoft (D). This option is incorrect because it fails to provide a position/organization for Microsoft (D).

Option 3: A-2, B-3, C-1, D-4

According to this option, Nancy Pelosi (A) is matched with "Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives" (2), Margaret Chan (B) is matched with "WHO" (3), Steve Ballmer (C) is matched with "WTO" (1), and Microsoft (D) is matched with 4. This option is correct because it accurately matches each person with their respective position/organization.

Option 4: A-4, B-1, C-3, D-2

According to this option, Nancy Pelosi (A) is matched with "Microsoft" (4), Margaret Chan (B) is matched with "WTO" (1), Steve Ballmer (C) is matched with "WHO" (3), and there is no match for Microsoft (D). This option is incorrect because it also fails to provide a position/organization for Microsoft (D).

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 3: A-2, B-3, C-1, D-4. Nancy Pelosi is associated with the position of "Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives," Margaret Chan is associated with the World Health Organization (WHO), Steve Ballmer is associated with the World Trade Organization (WTO), and Microsoft is associated with Steve Ballmer`s former position as its CEO.
