Answer:
Description 1 matches C.
Description 2 matches A.
Description 3 matches D.
Description 4 matches B.
Explanation:
Description 1 matches C. From graph C, we can see that the <em>distance remains constant at a particular value</em>. Hence, the car is <em>not traveling</em> and hence it is <em>stopped.</em>
Description 2 matches A. <em>Speed is determined by the gradient of a distance-time graph</em>. A depicts a <em>linear graph</em> which tells us that the <em>gradient is constant </em>and hence the car is at <em>constant speed</em>. The fact that the<em> distance is increasing</em> shows that the<em> car is moving forward</em>.
Description 3 matches D. Graph of D becomes <em>less steeper as time progresses</em>. This tells us that the <em>gradient of the graph is decreasing </em>and hence the <em>speed of the car is decreasing.</em>

Description 4 matches B. Graph B shows <em>distance being decreased.</em> This tells us that the <em>car is coming back</em>.
