Answer: To show the difference between an educated, refined noble class and coarse, crude commoners. However, this doesn't mean that Shakespeare resented the commoners. It was a self-explanatory fact that the nobles and educated were refined enough to use iambic pentameter in talking to each other - but this has many exceptions too; there are many moments in his plays when the nobles use prose or blank verse, for example when they are chatting to each other or are intoxicated. However, Shakespeare's blank verse and prose, though devoid of contemporary poetic mannerisms, are extremely witty and rich in meaning and associations.

The correct answers are: B) the dystopian world that Gregor enters as an insect, and C) Gregor's sudden transformation into a giant insect.

A Kafkaesque situation is a nightmarish one, and also strongly surreal, so in that sense, the options that relate the most to said expression are the ones that have to do with dream-like things, like the dystopian world and Gregor becoming an insect.
