The answer is A | this answer is now 20 characters long
I believe the answer is A. This is because the sentence is supposed to be parallel and all of the verbs(except for hiss) have to be past tense.
Robert - Robert is the name of Miss Foley's real nephew who never appears in the book. When Will and Jim first see Miss Foley at the carnival she is looking for him, and later Mr. Cooger pretends to be him.
Mr. Cooger - Along with Mr. Dark, Mr. Cooger is in charge of the carnival. He is pure evil, and he pretends to be Miss Foley's nephew Robert in order to get her to ride on the carousel. Mr. Cooger also tries to get Jim to ride on the merry-go-round, and if not for Will he would have succeeded. Although he is dangerous and cunning, Mr. Cooger is a threatening possibility for most of the book since he is too old to do anything after Will messes up his carousel ride.

Answer: Choice C (Judicious)
Explanation: Judicious means to have, show, or do something with good judgment or sense. This doesn't make sense given the context that Howard forgot to pay his bill. Not paying his bill is something that is not done with good judgment. Therefore this definition would not be appropriate.
Hope this helps and makes sense.
