Correct Answer: to reach


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

The phrase "to reach" is used here to express the purpose or objective of the goal—to reach or attain the outcome of immunising every child against polio. It fits grammatically and contextually, emphasising the active effort and commitment to achieving widespread vaccination coverage and, ultimately, a polio-free world for future generations.

Therefore, the correct answer is to reach.
