What does it mean to discard something?

To preserve and collect items for future use
To sell items for profit
To throw away or get rid of it
To organize and classify items

The correct answer is: To throw away or get rid of it

To discard something means to throw it away or to get rid of it. This action implies that the item is no longer needed or wanted and is thus removed from one's possession or area. Discarding often involves making a decision to eliminate an object, indicating that it no longer serves a purpose or is deemed undesirable. The other options focus on different actions: preserving and collecting items suggests an intention to keep them for later; selling items for profit involves a transaction that aims to gain financial value; and organizing and classifying items indicates a desire to arrange or categorize them rather than dispose of them. Each of these actions represents a different relationship with items, but none align with the notion of discarding.
