The answer is D.

A container for which the X-Storage-Class metadata field is set to Archive is called an Archive container[..]

!!The most important!!!
You can set X-Storage-Class only when creating a new container. After you set X-Storage-Class, you cannot change it.

No, the answer is D. Looking at eBook E37261 (same link as vichino provided above), there is a quote on page 39 of the PDF (page 2 of section 2) that says:

“By default, all containers are of the STANDARD storage class (as opposed to the ARCHIVE storage class).”
