Answer:

Hi! In Ezra Pound's In a Station of the Metro, his use of the word apparition makes the people seem ghostly. The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

I chose the first option because the word apparition can only be related to ghosts. Ghastly means awful, scandalous means shocking, loud, and unattractive is something not pretty. The word apparition is related to something that appears unexpectedly, all of a sudden. Something that wasn't supposed to be there, or at least that nobody had seen until a certain moment. Something that was already there, but wasn't able to be seen, like a ghost. That is why I chose A.
