Here is the justification
Here is the justification
A. Making sure that all exit criteria have been met - This is one of the essential criteria to determine whether to close phase/project
B. Obtaining formal acceptance of a deliverables from all stakeholders - This describes validate scope process. In closing phase you obtain formal acceptance to confirm if all the stakeholder's requirements for the final deliverable are met as documented in project management plan.
C. Moving the project's deliverables to the next phase or into production - related to closing phase/project
D. Writing down lessons learned - Of course the last steps in closing process group.
So the correct answer is B.

Reliable Free Mock Tests
You are right, the answer should be C.
Free Resources For PMP
You will find free resources on almost every website oriented towards PMP. But all free resources are not equal. Many websites provide free stuff just to attract potential customers. The content is dubious and full of errors. You should review the free stuff carefully before using it for your exam prep. I would suggest to all PMP aspirants to look at only reliable sources for doing sample questions. Even a few REPs sometimes provide dubious Q. Unreliable free stuff can lead to failure in the exam.
Free Mock Tests
You should read this article to find reliable sources of 3500+ free questions - PMP Sample Questions.
One should start the exam prep with some reliable free tests but ultimately the final practice should be done on a paid simulator. You should read this article - 13 Reasons to Invest in a Paid PMP Practice Exam.
Reasons for Failure
PMP Exam is a professional exam and it is a difficult exam. It requires consistent and regular study.
I have written a post that describes 15 Reasons Why People Failed the PMP Exam. You should also read this article to understand why aspirants fail in the PMP exam - 15 Reasons Why People Failed the PMP Exam.
Some of the important points written in he article are:
* One should attend a formal training course
* One must thoroughly study the PMBOK Guide
* One should not overtly rely on free sources (although some free sources are good).
The article also give valuable alternatives and suggestion to avoid pitfalls.
