Correct Answer: gives off
Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.
Explanation: "Gives off" means to emit or release something, such as light, heat, or radiation. In the context of the sentence, it accurately conveys the idea that radium emits rays that can blind the eyes.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
Gives away: It means to give something as a gift or reveal a secret. It does not fit the context of radium-emitting rays.
Gives over: It means to surrender or transfer control or possession of something, and it does not fit the context of radium emitting rays.
Gives up: It means to stop trying or surrender. It does not convey the idea of radium emitting rays.
So, the sentence would be: "Radium gives off rays that blind the eyes."
