# Brief Explanations:
1. For congruent circles, corresponding arcs and chords are congruent. Since $ \odot A \cong \odot V $, we analyze each option:
   - Option 1: $ \overarc{BE} \cong \overarc{ZX} $ – If the central angles or the arcs' corresponding chords are congruent, this can hold. Given the circle congruence, corresponding arcs (like those subtended by congruent central angles or chords) are congruent.
   - Option 2: $ \overarc{CB} \cong \overarc{YZ} $ – Need to check correspondence. The labeling of the circles: $ \odot A $ has points $ B, C, E, D $ and $ \odot V $ has $ Z, Y, X, W $. The arc $ CB $ in $ \odot A $ and $ YZ $ in $ \odot V $ may not correspond directly.
   - Option 3: $ \overline{BC} \cong \overline{ZY} $ – For congruent circles, chords subtended by congruent arcs (or central angles) are congruent. If $ \overarc{BC} $ and $ \overarc{ZY} $ are corresponding arcs (due to circle congruence and vertex correspondence), their chords $ BC $ and $ ZY $ are congruent.
   - Option 4: The last option (partially visible) about angles: If the central angles correspond (e.g., $ \angle BAE $ and $ \angle ZVX $), but from the visible options, the first and third are more likely. Wait, re - evaluating: When two circles are congruent, their corresponding chords and arcs are congruent. Looking at the circle $ \odot A $ with center $ A $ and $ \odot V $ with center $ V $. The chord $ BC $ in $ \odot A $ and chord $ ZY $ in $ \odot V $ should be congruent (since the circles are congruent and the arcs $ BC $ and $ ZY $ should correspond). Also, arc $ BE $ and arc $ ZX $ – if the central angles $ \angle BAE $ and $ \angle ZVX $ are congruent (which they should be as the circles are congruent and the angle markings seem to match), then the arcs $ BE $ and $ ZX $ are congruent. Wait, but the third option is a chord congruence ($ \overline{BC} \cong \overline{ZY} $) and the first is arc congruence ($ \overarc{BE} \cong \overarc{ZX} $). Let's confirm:
     - Congruent circles have congruent radii. So, chords that subtend congruent arcs (or are subtended by congruent central angles) are congruent. For arc congruence, if the central angles are congruent, the arcs are congruent. Since $ \odot A \cong \odot V $, their corresponding arcs (like $ \overarc{BE} $ and $ \overarc{ZX} $) and corresponding chords (like $ \overline{BC} $ and $ \overline{ZY} $) should be congruent.
     - The second option $ \overarc{CB} \cong \overarc{YZ} $: The arc $ CB $ and $ YZ $ – the order of the points matters. $ \overarc{CB} $ is from $ C $ to $ B $ and $ \overarc{YZ} $ is from $ Y $ to $ Z $, which may not be corresponding arcs.
     - So the correct options are $ \overarc{BE} \cong \overarc{ZX} $ and $ \overline{BC} \cong \overline{ZY} $.
