Directions to Solve
The sheet of paper shown in the figure (X) given on the left hand side, in each problem, is folded to form a box. Choose from amongst the alternatives (1), (2), (3) and (4), the boxes that are similar to the box that will be formed.
9.
Choose the box that is similar to the box formed from the given sheet of paper (X).
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The fig. (X) is similar to the Form II. So, when the sheet shown in fig. (X) is folded to form a cube then the two half-shaded faces lie opposite to each other, the face bearing a square lies opposite to one of the two blank faces and the face bearing a circle lies opposite to the other blank face. Therefore, the cubes shown in figures (2) and (3) which have the two half-shaded faces adjacent to each other, cannot be formed by folding the sheet shown in fig. (X). Also, though the cube shown in fig. (4) has faces that can appear adjacent to each other but the cube formed by folding the sheet in fig. (X) cannot be rotated to form the cube in fig. (4). Hence, only the cube in fig. (1) can be formed.

It is not clearly showing that how it will be 1 except 4. Why not 4?

I think it's both 1 and 4 is the answer.

When Square side faces you, the shaded region will be in horizontal and in option 4 the region shaded is vertical so it is not true.
