B Correct answer
Explanation

Plagiarism is the practice of using someone else's work, ideas, or intellectual property without proper attribution or permission. 'Theft of another's idea' is the correct answer because plagiarism essentially means stealing intellectual property. The other options are incorrect - Plugged means blocked or filled, Truth means honesty (the opposite of plagiarism), and Original means not copied (opposite of plagiarized).
