The correct restriction on political participation for non-citizens in the U.S. is: They are not allowed to vote or run for political office. Non-citizens do not have the legal right to participate in federal or state elections. The other options listed (petitioning for citizenship, paying poll taxes, and literacy tests) are not applicable restrictions on non-citizens. Poll taxes and literacy tests were used historically but have been abolished and are not required for participation by any eligible voters today.
