Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. The paper is folded twice:
   - First fold: vertical fold down the middle.
   - Second fold: horizontal fold across the middle.

2. The cut is made on the folded paper, removing two triangles on the right side.

3. When the paper is unfolded:
   - The vertical fold means the cut on the right side will be mirrored on the left side.
   - The horizontal fold means the cut on the top half will be mirrored on the bottom half.

4. Therefore, the unfolded paper will have four triangles cut out symmetrically, corresponding to the cuts on the folded paper.

5. Among the options, only Option 1 correctly shows this symmetrical pattern of four triangles cut out.

**Answer:** Option 1
