A-D are all correct. The differences are trivial. I feel sorry for students who have no choice but to put up with such nonsense.

Hello! While "supply" and "deliver" are related terms, they have distinct meanings in the context of goods or services.
Supply:
Definition: "To supply" generally refers to the act of providing or making goods, services, or resources available. It encompasses the entire process of making something available for use or consumption.
Example: A company may supply raw materials to a factory.
Deliver:
Definition: "To deliver" specifically refers to the act of transporting and handing over goods, services, or a message to a designated recipient or location. It involves the physical or metaphorical transfer of something to its intended destination.
Example: A courier delivers a package to a customer's doorstep.
In summary, "to supply" is about making something available, while "to deliver" is about the actual act of getting it to the intended recipient or destination. In many cases, the two terms are used together to describe the entire process—from making goods available to ensuring they reach the end user.
