A Correct answer
Explanation

When something is shrouded, it means it's completely covered, hidden, or concealed. The street being shrouded in darkness means darkness covered it entirely. 'Covered' is the correct meaning here, while met, given, and pushed don't relate to the concept of being wrapped in darkness.
