B Correct answer
Explanation

Cadged means to beg, borrow, or obtain something by asking repeatedly (often informally). Someone frequently getting 'lifts' (rides in cars) from friends by asking is cadging them. Called (phoned/shouted), calmed (soothed), ceased (stopped), and careered (rushed) don't match this informal borrowing context.
