I can't see the illustrations you are referring to. However, I can describe how light behaves when it enters and travels through a glass of water.
When a ray of light enters the glass of water, it will bend (refract) at the interface between air and water due to the change in speed of light in different mediums. The light will bend towards the normal line (an imaginary line perpendicular to the surface at the point of entry) when entering the water. As it moves through the water and exits back into the air, it will bend away from the normal.
To determine which option (A, B, C, or D) is correct, you should look for the illustration that shows:
1. Light bending towards the normal as it enters the water.
2. The light traveling straight through the water.
3. The light bending away from the normal as it exits back into the air.
If you can describe the illustrations, I might be able to help you choose the correct one!
