Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is B. It does use the correct punctuation :)

When someone is speaking, whatever they said must be in quotation marks. When you are writing what they said, you are quoting hence the given name quotation mark. Also, when you are finished quoting what they said you end the quote by using closed quotation marks and a comma as it is shown in option B :)
