Explanation:

- The sentence "The story did not go by well enough" uses the phrase "go by," which implies passing or elapsing in time. It's not usually about reception or acceptance.

- Option 1: go through - To "go through" usually means to experience or endure something. It doesn’t fit well in this context.

- Option 2: go down - To "go down" often refers to how something is received or accepted by others. "The story did not go down well" means it wasn't well-received, making this the most suitable replacement.

- Option 3: go off - Usually refers to an event happening successfully or something making noise. Not fitting in this context.

- Option 4: go into - Means to enter into a state or activity. It's not relevant here.
