B Correct answer
Explanation

(antonyms) Shogun (is a person belonging to aristocratic class) and hoi-polloi (is term referring to masses common people) are antonyms. We need a pair that bears synonymous relationship. Janus-faced and Judas both mean double faced hypocrites, and thus are synonyms. That makes option (2) correct.
