She found the perfect title for her new novel.

  • A.break upon
  • B.hit upon
  • C.turned up
  • D.none of these

Answer: B

The answer is hit upon: She hit upon the perfect title for her new novel.

To hit upon (or hit on) an idea, a plan or a name is to find or think of it, often suddenly or by chance. It is the natural replacement for found when the thing found is an idea such as a title.

Break upon means to appear or become known suddenly (the truth broke upon him) and cannot take an object. Turned up means appeared or arrived, so she turned up the title does not mean she found it. Since hit upon fits, 'none of these' is wrong.
