The theme of the novel that this excerpt best addresses is the self-destructive nature of obsession. The narrator uses the White Whale as a symbol for every obsession that drives a man forward while, at the same time, it destroys him from within. This destruction is apparent in the fact that this man is living with "half a heart and half a lung" because the obsession has eaten the rest.
The prompt is about filling in the correct word in the gaps. The correct words are the words that best complete the sentences.

Typically, the answer would be D....get it...haha
The prepositional phrase is “with the play”.
This is because a prepositional phrase begins with a preposition and is not essential in creating a complete sentence; instead it adds details.
With is a preposition, so with the play is a prepositional phrase. “She was bored” is still a meaningful sentence without the prepositional phrase, so we know that our answer is correct.
Hope this helps!
