Correct answer

Explanation
The question is about how to behave when entering an uncontrolled junction of equal roads. You watch the whole junction and its surroundings - answer B.
At an uncontrolled junction of equal roads, a tram has right of way over other vehicles regardless of the side from which they approach, but this does not release the tram driver from paying attention. Drivers may not notice the tram or may misjudge its speed, and pedestrians and cyclists may step onto the tracks. So you watch the whole junction: the approaches of all roads, pedestrian crossings and pavements. Looking only straight ahead (answer A) or only to the right (answer C) will not let you notice dangers from other directions.
