In activity B, where you are pushing against a rock but not moving it, work is being done in its scientific meaning as the force you apply results in a displacement over time, even though the rock doesn't move. In activities A and C, no work is being done because there is either no displacement in the case of sitting still on a rock (A) or no force causing a displacement in the case of pushing a rock over a cliff (C).
