Book titles can either be underlined or italicized. Usually you underline it handwriting and italicize it when you're typing.
(none of these choices have book titles, though)

Italicize: Magazine names, plays, movies, TV shows, artwork.
(this means that A, B, and D are incorrect)

C is not a magazine name but rather an article, which means you would use quotation marks. The correct answer is C.

A is incorrect. You would put the title of the play in Italics.

B is also incorrect, I believe we would italicize the title of the movie.

C: is correct because you put the article titles in quotes
