- To solve this, identify common words and numbers across phrases.

- "shoes are shining" = '235'

- "shining stars rotate" = '458'

- "stars are round" = '829'

- "shining" appears in '235' and '458'; so, 'shining' is '5'.

- "stars" appears in '458' and '829'; therefore, 'stars' is '8'.

- "are" appears in '235' and '829' but not in '458'.

- Common number in '235' and '829', excluding identified numbers ('5' and '8'), is '2'.

- Therefore, "are" is coded as '2'.

Hence, the correct option is Option:4 - 2.
