C. Many of the students gave a CD to their parents, but Rachel kept one for themselves.

Answer 1

A. Many of the students gave a CD to their parents, but Rachel kept one for herself

Answer 2

The correct answer is A. Many of the students gave a CD to their parents, but Rachel kept on for herself. The correct pronoun is "herself." This is because Rachel is the subject. Rachel cannot refer to the plural forms of "ourselves" or "themselves" because it is singular.
