D.
Splitting tables into multiple tables; using the LIMIT clause
Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

If you split a table into multiple tables (such as one table for each day), then you can limit your query to the data in specific tables (such as for particular days). A better method is to use a partitioned table, as long as your data can be separated by the day.

If you use the LIMIT clause, BigQuery will still process the entire table.
