Sentence 1 - Break away means to leave something. Break through will come instead of Break away. Sentence 2 - Break off means to break piece from something. Break up fits correctly. Sentence 3 - Break through means to pass through a barrier. Break out which means to escape fits in the sentence. Sentence 4 - Break into means to begin suddenly to do something. Use of Break into is correct here. Sentence 5 - Break up means to finish a relationship with someone. Break up is not coherent with the meaning of the sentence instead we should use break down which means the act or process of failing to function or continue. Only selection of break into is coherent with the sentence, so only sentence 4 is correct.
