The correct answer would be A. The first step in getting the gist would be to identify the keywords. Getting gist is the same as knowing the main idea of a certain passage. The very first to identify this should be to find keywords that you think is important in the text and speaks of the message of the passage.
First,
let us define each word with their dictionary definitions:
Confuse
is making a person not certain or unable to understand onto something.
Meander
is a ‘winding path or course’ (e.g. a river or a road)
Harangue
is a speech which is forceful or angry
Distract
is causing someone ‘to stop thinking about or paying attention’ onto something
or someone
With
the words and their meaning, the word that is most likely to have a negative
flavor or connotation is letter C: Harangue.

i believe it is the last one. hope this helps
Answer:
Sherlock Holmes is extremely skilled in logic, deduction, and reason. John Watson is skilled in medical knowledge. Watson gives Holmes the insight of a doctor and Holmes is able to solve puzzles better than Watson is. Watson also provides Holmes a person to explain his theories to, which helps Holmes recognize holes in his theories. As far as I can tell, there are no characteristics that they are lacking that would help them in detective work.
