Solution

The correct option is B Interrupting
The phrase 'break in' means to interject or cut in.
"‘I don't want to interfere,’ Mrs Hendry broke in"
In this context, breaking in on a conversation means to interrupt a conversation while a person is still speaking. Hence, option A is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
