Since the statement is "All P are M", we know that area 5 (where all P and M overlap) must be shaded. Additionally, since there is no information about any relationship between non-P and non-M areas, we can shade areas 6 and 7 (non-P and M areas) as well. Therefore, the correct choice is C, which includes areas 5, 6, and 7 as shaded.
