Solution

The question seems to be referring to Franz Kafka's novella, "The Metamorphosis." In the story, Gregor Samsa wakes up one day to find himself transformed into a giant insect. His father, Mr. Samsa, who had been dependent on Gregor's income, is forced to find work again after Gregor's transformation.

The correct answer to your question would be D. Gregor is shocked and can't believe his father looks so strong and healthy. After his transformation, Gregor is unable to work and provide for his family. When he sees his father rejuvenated and working again, he is shocked because his father had previously been portrayed as frail and old.
