Hint: The given sentence conveys that someone is busy, that is short of time. Also, the speaker is telling someone that he will talk to the listener, the next time when they see each other. We will look for an option that describes the stated meaning correctly.  Complete answer:Let us analyse each option individually to figure out the correct answer. A. I’ll catch you later: The meaning of this phrase is that , to see someone later due to shortage of time in the present. This phrase expresses the meaning of the underlined words correctly. Therefore, this  is the correct option.B. I’ll be on your case: The meaning of this phrase is to constantly nag someone, to harass , to annoy. This phrase doesn’t express the meaning of the underlined words correctly. Therefore, this is an incorrect option. C. I ‘ll cash it in: The meaning of this phrase is to take advantage of something. It means to convert something ( insurance policies, gold, investments) into money. This phrase doesn’t expresses the meaning of the underlined words correctly. Therefore, this is an incorrect option.D. None of the above: This option suggests that there is no option from the above given options that expresses the meaning of the underlined words correctly. But, since we have concluded the answer, this option remains invalid.  Hence, the correct answer is option A. Note:The phrase ‘catch you later’ can also be used as ‘see you some other time’ or ‘see you soon’. This phrase is used when in a situation we are short of time and cannot attend someone for more time, we bid them a goodbye by using such phrases. This is a polite way of saying goodbye. We cannot directly tell somebody that we don’t have time to talk to them at the moment. Example: It's time for my tuition classes, I will catch you later. Example: I am leaving for the airport, See you soon.
