To match List I (City) with List II (River), let`s analyze each option and find the correct pairing:

A. Bangkok - 1. Irrawaddy: Bangkok is not associated with the Irrawaddy River. The Irrawaddy River is the longest river in Myanmar (formerly Burma), flowing through the country from north to south. Bangkok, on the other hand, is the capital city of Thailand and is located near the Chao Phraya River, not the Irrawaddy River.

B. Phnom Penh - 2. Mekong: Phnom Penh is the capital city of Cambodia, and it is indeed located along the Mekong River. The Mekong River is one of the major rivers in Southeast Asia, flowing through several countries including China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. Therefore, B-2 is a correct pairing.

C. Hanoi - 3. Menam (Chao Phraya): Hanoi is the capital city of Vietnam and is situated far north of Thailand. The Menam River, also known as the Chao Phraya River, is the major river of Thailand. It runs through Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, and eventually empties into the Gulf of Thailand. Therefore, C-3 is a correct pairing.

D. Yangon - 4. Red River: Yangon is the largest city in Myanmar and is not associated with the Red River. The Red River is a significant river in northern Vietnam, flowing through the capital city, Hanoi. It plays a vital role in the agricultural and cultural aspects of the region. Therefore, D-4 is an incorrect pairing.

Based on the analysis above, the correct pairing is:

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

However, this pairing is not among the provided options. None of the options matches the correct pairing exactly. Therefore, none of the given options is the correct answer.
