Explanation

Method: before listening, ask 'who – is doing what – with what'. The man is driving a forklift (지게차) to move boxes. Sentence 2, '지게차로 상자를 옮기고 있습니다', matches both the tool and the action: answer 2. Sentence 1 has boxes but carried by hand; 3 is taping; 4 has the forklift but he is repairing it. The four sentences are read only once, so mark the right one as soon as you hear it.
