Option C.

Explanation:

‘The Crab That Played with the Sea’ is a very entertaining book for children written by Rudyard Kipling. In the excerpt, Pau Amma is a crab who isn’t obedient as the rest of the animals. From the line ‘I will play my play alone in the deep waters, and I will never be obedient to this son of Adam’ we get to known that Pau Amma simply don’t want to follow the orders of the man. All the other animals in the excerpt are engaged in a game told by the magician except Pau Amma. The crab gets annoyed and starts playing in the sea alone, away from the group. This simply depicts the way crab sees himself as better than the rest.
