The correct answer is A. Two sharp whistles.
The driver must give two sharp whistles if he does not receive the all-right signal from the guard. This is to alert the guard that there is a problem and that the train should not proceed.
Option B is incorrect because one long and one short whistle is the signal to proceed. Option C is incorrect because one long whistle is the signal to stop. Option D is incorrect because none of these options are correct.
