The four sentences are identical except for one word, so the whole question turns on the spelling of the past participle of 'launch'. It is spelt l-a-u-n-c-h-e-d: 'launched'. The distractors each mangle the vowel cluster — 'lounched' (ou for au), 'lanched' (the u dropped) and 'lownched' (ow for au) — and none of these is an English word. Answer: option 4.
2.(2) The renewed COVID-19 concerns have now brought about the desired objective.The renewed COVID-19 concerns have now brought about the desired objective.
