Explanation:
This is because the author is using the word in a literal meaning and not in an expressional meaning like a poet does.
Example. The Main Character cannot break through the wall, Its pretty tough.
This is literal. The word " tough " is being used in its dictionary meaning since it means Hard.

Tough is used as an emotional feeling of being broken down instead of its dictionary counterpart.

The correct revision is answer choice C.
