Cross Cannizzaro reaction is

Which of the following reaction will aldehyde?

Aldehydes undergo disproportionation reaction in presence of aqueous NaOH. Simultaneous oxidation and reduction of a compound is scientifically called as disproportionatio. Aldehydes having no alpha - hydrogen show this reaction called Cannizzaro's reactio. Few exceptions are also there to this generalisation. The reaction may be represented as : C_(6)H_(5)CHO+C_(6)H_(5)CHOoverset(NaOH)underset(Delta)rarrC_(6)H_(5)COONa+C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)OH Intramolecular Carrizzaro's reaction is also possible. Which of the following compounds gives interal crossed Cannizzaro's reaction ?
