Answers:
1. "C". In that situation, incoming frames are treated just as broadcast frames are - a copy is sent out every port except the one that originally received the frame.
2. You know this from your CCNA studies - protect, restrict, and shutdown. Shutdown is the default.
3. "D". You can only apply a single VACL to a VLAN.
4. aaa new-model
5. show monitor (yeah, I know, that seems odd to me too!)
6. "C". You need to make that port an access port before applying port security.
7. dot1x system-auth-control
8. Depending on the situation and your network, you could..
use BPDU Guard
use Root Guard
Disable DTP on trunk ports
Make the native VLAN on the trunk an unused VLAN
