Explanation:

In MLA style for web page citations, the correct order is: Author's last name, first name. "Title of the article." Title of the website. Publisher, date of publication. Web. Date of access. The first option follows this structure: Butterman, Eric (author), "Robots for Your Amusement" (article title), ASME.org (website), ASME (publisher), Apr. 2013 (publication date), Web. 18 May 2013 (access date). The other options misorder the elements (e.g., author after title, website before author, incorrect formatting of website as a title).

Answer:

A. Butterman, Eric. “Robots for Your Amusement.” ASME.org. ASME, Apr. 2013. Web. 18 May 2013.
