正解: C) by
The meaning is 'must be submitted by the fifth of each month' — a deadline, so 'by' is correct. 'Until' means 'continuously up to' and doesn't fit well with a one-time action like 'submit'. 'In' marks a span, and 'at' marks a clock time. 'By' = completion, 'until' = continuation is the key distinction being tested.
