Explanation:

Hurricanes form over low pressure regions with warm temperatures over large bodies of water. The warm temperature causes the ocean water to evaporate. As the hurricane moves over land, the hurricane is no longer fueled by this moisture. Therefore, the hurricane begins to slow down and die as it moves further inland. Hence option 1st is correct.
