The correct answer is

A-2, B-1, C-3, D-4

A-2, B-1, C-3, D-4 is correct.

Ippon is the highest score in judo and gives immediate victory, by a clean throw, a hold-down for the full time, or a submission (choke or arm-lock), so A-2.

Hansoku-make is the heaviest penalty: a direct disqualification for a serious rule breach, so B-1.

Waza-ari is the lower score, given for a throw that lacks some element of an ippon or for a hold-down of about 10 seconds; two waza-ari make an ippon, so C-3.

Sixth kyu is a beginner grade in the kyu (coloured belt) system, matched with the light blue belt in the list, so D-4. The matching is A-2, B-1, C-3, D-4.
