(III) B, C
The aromatic alcohols or aryl-alcohols are a class of chemical compounds containing a hydroxyl group (—OH) bonded directly to an aromatic hydrocarbon group.
In the given question, the aromatic alcohols are those compounds in which the hydroxyl group is not directly attached to the benzene ring but is linked to a carbon atom situated in a side-chain. In short, we will search for that figure in which the hydroxyl group is linked to sp3 hybridised carbon.
So, compound B and C have -OH groups attached to sp3 hybridized -CH3 groups and hence ar

So, compound B and C have -OH groups attached to sp3 hybridized -CH3 groups and hence are aromatic alcohols and compounds A and D have -OH groups attached to sp2 benzene rings, hence are non-aromatic compounds.
