words used as words or letters used as letters
foreign words and phrases

Answer 1

Select all except "titles of short stories."

So italics/underlining are used for:
- names of ships, trains, aircraft
- words used as words or letters used as letters
- foreign words and phrases (not fully anglicized)
- titles of books, newspapers, magazines
- titles of paintings

(Titles of short stories are usually set in quotation marks, not italics.)
