Answer:
A. To leave a place
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, you can look up what the word means, but its better to use context clues in case you don't have the chance to look it up. If something is "empty," we know its no longer there.
B can be tricky because of that, since destruction is techincally making something no longer there. However, empty isn't aggressive like destruction. There's no other parts of "evacuate" that imply destruction.
C and D the other ones don't have a direct meaning to being empty.
A is right because if you leave somewhere, it becomes empty.
