Based on this excerpt, what can be inferred about Oliver's neighbors is C. they think he is a bit peculiar, yet they revere him.

Answer:
1. Gregor is concerned about the job he has.
2. Gregor's family could be shocked that he became an insect, so it would no longer be a responsibility for him to have to work and he could rest.
Explanation:
Gregor transformed himself into a giant insect while he slept and when he woke up he was not concerned with this transformation, but was concerned with finding a solution that would allow him to go to work. That's because it was Gregor's obligation to support the family and that is why he worked hard. As Gregor didn't leave the room, his family didn't care about him, but he worried that his delay would cause him to lose his job, which made him feel like opening the door to the room and showing what had happened to him, so everyone would be shocked, accept that he would not work and then he could rest.
