The direct answer is A: worship is an example of practising religion. Practising means following the acts, observances, or rituals of one’s faith. Worship may include prayer, attending a place of worship, or performing a religious ceremony, depending on the faith. Reasoning step by step: the person is carrying out a religious act; carrying out a faith-based act is practice; therefore worship belongs under practising religion. Option A is correct. Option B, paying tax, is a civic and legal duty, not worship. Option C, counting votes, is part of an election process, not religious practice. Option D, building roads, is public work and unrelated to the act of worship. The right to practise religion is not unlimited: lawful public-order, health, morality, and other-rights considerations can matter. However, the question asks for the ordinary category of worship, and A is clearly correct. Memory cue: belief is what one accepts, practice is what one does, and worship is practice.
