I ‘m not sure why it isn’t B…

Muy simple, recuerda que los ruteadores del level-1 reciben rutas internas de sus areas, una ruta default publicado por su ABR para alcanzar a sus rutas interareas y ademas es posible que se inyecten rutas externas L1 usando policy.
en el caso de OSPF area stub no puede ser por que este aun recibe rutas interareas, NSSA es un area stub pero que permite que se generen rutas externas en su area de modo que lo mas cercano a area L1 en ospf es no-so-stubby-area NSSA = D

is-is level-1 device will not allow the redistribution of its directly connected interface. it cannot be a nssa area where redistribution is possible.
Answer: B. OSPF stub area

It is D, NSSA no summaries. There are only level 1 LSA + Default generated in L1 = OSPF LSA Type 1 + no summaries. NSSA allows externals, so does L1

IS-IS does not force the network to use a hierarchical physical topology. Instead, a single AS can be divided into two types of areas: Level 1 areas and Level 2 areas.
A Level 1 area is similar to an OSPF stub area, and a Level 2 area interconnects all Level 1 areas. The router and its interfaces reside within one area, and Level 2 routers share link-state information. No IS-IS area functions strictly as a backbone.

answer must be B

The most correct answer available in multiple choice is D (OSPF NSSA with no summaries)

Actually correct answer should be Totally stubby area per link below, but that option is not available in the multiple choice.

http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.2/topics/example/isis-multi-level.html
Example: Configuring Multi-Level IS-IS
Overview
Like OSPF, the IS-IS protocol supports the partitioning of a routing domain into multiple areas with levels that control inter-area flooding. The use of multiple levels improves protocol scalability, as level 2 (backbone) link-state protocol data units (LSPs) are normally not flooded into a level 1 area.

An IS-IS level 2 area is analogous to the OSPF backbone area (0), while a level 1 area operates much like an OSPF totally stubby area, in that a default route is normally used to reach both inter-level and AS external routes.

Here is how you configure a totally stubby area

http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.2/topics/example/ospf-stub-area-configuring.html

(Optional) On the ABR, restrict summary LSAs from entering the area. This step converts the stub area into a totally stubby area.
