Solution

The correct option is B brought up
The phrasal verb 'brought up' means to rear a child, develop good manners in him and also work on his behaviour. So, in this context the aunt brings up a baby after the death of the baby's parents. Thus, Option B is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
