B Correct answer
Explanation

The ls command defaults to ls -C, which displays files in multi-column format. This is the standard output format when ls is run without options in a terminal. Options like -l (long format) and -x (horizontal multi-column) require explicit flags. -A shows all files except . and .., which is not the default behavior.
