The character portrayal of Ahab is scripted as a very reserved person. Especially, after leaving Nantucket, he is not seen much by his crew on the deck.
From the description in the question, the alternate word that can express the firm and unchanging traits of the protagonist in Chapter 28, in my opinion , must be a static object. It must embody no life or movement in its definition. This kind of similarity would supplement the personality of Ahab. And here, 'a stone monument' can symbolize lifeless-rigidity in behavior which will totally complement Ahab.
Therefore, I think option-"C" is correct.
The readers interpretation is affected by knowing the passage is a memoir because they know that the passage was written for someone in particular
(D) That Leila is shocked at what the driver of the convertible did
Incredulous is defined as being "unwilling to admit or accept what is offered as true". If we analyze the sentence carefully, we can sort of make out how she feels, but if we completely remove the word from the sentence and input something we can understand a little easier, such as:
<em>"...</em><u><em>incredibly surprised</em></u><em> that he would stop traffic just to yell at another driver behind him."</em>
We can see that it fits right in.
Lastly, look at the word itself. It has a lot in common with "incredible" which is a much more commonly used word, knowing that it means "too improbably to be believed". This is one of the best methods for finding out the meaning to words we don't know. It won't be perfect 100% of the time, but in most cases it works.
