Jame was status when he heard the terrible news - Option C

Unemotional because the reason is that when James heard the terrible news as he was statue it indicates that he was unemotional. He was unconscious and when he become conscious, he started to weep then this condition is emotional. But when he is unemotional he was like a statue. This also indicates that his feels of emotional were not much responsive due to the shock.
