Read the passage from "The Yellow Wallpaper.”
John laughs at me. . . .
John is practical in the extreme. He has no patience with faith, an intense horror of superstition, and he scoffs openly at any talk of things not to be felt and seen and put down in figures.
John is a physician, and . . . perhaps that is one reason I do not get well faster.
You see, he does not believe I am sick! . . . .
If a physician of high standing, and one’s own husband, assures friends and relatives that there is really nothing the matter with one but temporary nervous depression—a slight hysterical tendency—what is one to do?

The correct answer is D. Paradox.
Explanation
A paradox is a term to refer to an idea logically contradictory or opposed to the general consideration of what is considered true. According to the above, the fragment is a paradox because the author refers to the boat as a "home". In addition, he expresses "Other places seem so crowded and suffocating, but a raft does not", which could be considered a logically contradictory idea because a raft is very small or suffocating in size. So the correct answer is D. Paradox.
