   The simple answer is that 5 items can be arranged 5! (5 factorial) different ways. But let's expand upon that brief answer. We have 5 jobs and 5 machines with which to perform those jobs. So let's look at the 1st machine. Any of 5 of the jobs may be assigned to it. Now we have 4 jobs left unassigned. So let's look at the 2nd machine. For that machine, any of the 4 remaining jobs may be assigned to it, leaving 3 unassigned jobs. We can continue in that fashion, assigning at random one the of 3 remaining jobs to the 3rd machine, one of the 2 remaining jobs to the 4th machine, and finally, the only unassigned job to the 5th machine. So there's 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 5! = 120 different ways to assign those 5 jobs to all 5 machines.</span>

(A) Quotation is something that is being said by someone. So whether or not this speaker related himself to the university, what he said would still have been taken as a quote or would be put in quotation marks when written down.

(B) A Rhetorical Question is one which is asked without the intent of getting an answer. First of all, there is no question in this speaker's speech.

(D) "Story" would have been the answer if there was no option (C) but the fact that option C exists and more perfectly describes his speech, makes (D) refutable.
