C is definitely true, while A, D, and E are definitely false. B is a matter of opinion, since it says "should". I'll vote to say that yes, the class probably should implement a listener, but it doesn't have to. It's possible to instead call enableEvents() and override processEvents() to handle the event, but I wouldn't recommend it as it's unnecessarily complicated.
