Correct:
A
Explanation
Option 1 is incorrectly matched: the Seikan Rail Tunnel is an undersea railway link connecting the Japanese islands of Honshu and Hokkaido, and is located in Japan, not China [2]. The tunnel stretches roughly 33–34 miles and was long regarded as the world’s longest undersea rail tunnel, with significant portions beneath the Tsugaru Strait [2]. The other three pairs are correctly matched: the Petronas Towers are in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur), the Appalachian Trail is a long-distance footpath in the United States, and the Rogun Dam is a major hydropower project in Tajikistan.
