Consider the following pairs: Region often mentioned in the news — Country 1. Anatolia — Turkey 2. Amhara — Ethiopia 3. Cabo Delgado — Spain 4. Catalonia — Italy How many pairs given above are correctly matched?

Option (b) is correct because only Anatolia (Turkey) and Amhara (Ethiopia) are accurately matched, whereas Cabo Delgado is located in Mozambique and Catalonia is an autonomous region in Spain. The most tempting error is misidentifying Catalonia as Italian or Cabo Delgado as Spanish due to their frequent mention in European geopolitical contexts, but both are associated with distinct regional conflicts in Spain and Mozambique respectively. The core concept tested is "Places in News," specifically the ability to link geopolitical hotspots and administrative regions to their correct geographic locations.
