Answer: D

The correct matching is a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii.

(a) Foreseeing and desiring the consequences is intention.
(b) Foreseeing the possibility without desiring it, and consciously taking the risk, is recklessness.
(c) Conscious awareness of certain facts is knowledge.
(d) Failure to take reasonable care to avoid injury to another is negligence.

Option C swaps knowledge and recklessness, and options A and B put intention against the wrong description.
