Solution

The correct option is A Kick
A transitive verb has two characteristics. First, it is an action verb, expressing a doable activity like kick, want, etc. Second, it must have a direct object, something or someone who receives the action of the verb, here, the ball. Hence, Option B is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
