Text 7A1-II
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost. The Road Not Taken. 1916 (adapted).

Resolução comentada
'Looked down' = verbo regular + preposição de direção.
'Looked down one' significa que ele olhou ao longo de um dos caminhos, e 'down' indica direção. Assim, é verbo comum seguido de preposição, não phrasal verb idiomático.
Análise das alternativas
B) e C) Errada: não há sentido figurado de reflexão ou julgamento negativo (como em 'look down on'). D) Errada: a voz é ativa. E) Errada: 'down' aqui é preposição de direção, não advérbio que forme verbo composto.
Referência: Verbs with prepositions vs. phrasal verbs.
