Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Although A seems like a great answer as well, D is a statement that only gives one side of a story. You and I both don't know the man, but the speaker of the sentence has already gotten you and I to think about one thing: The man's lack of intelligence.
Quotations add emphasis to ideas, so A is out. If quotations add emphasis to ideas then they also add strong support to claims therefore C is out. Quotations add credibility to writing as well so D is out. Therefore B is the right answer, you would not include direct quotations in a story to add length to a boring story.

d) Gregor’s inability to communicate with others after his transformation into an insect is ISOLATION.
