Explanation:

To determine the example of "to eradicate", we first define "eradicate" as to completely destroy or get rid of something. Now analyze each option:

• Option 1: A pesticide sprayed on a field to get rid of bugs on crops aims to completely eliminate the bugs, which matches the definition of eradicate.
• Option 2: People becoming addicted to devices is a description of a trend, not eliminating something.
• Option 3: A window left open to circulate air is about air movement, not eradication.
• Option 4: Soldiers marching to a supply station is a movement, not related to eradicating.
