Read the following excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby: He saw me looking with admiration at his car. "It's pretty, isn't it, old sport!" He jumped off to give me a better view. "Haven't you ever seen it before?" I'd seen it. Everybody had seen it. It was a rich cream color, bright with nickel, swollen here and there in its monstrous length with triumphant hat-boxes and supper-boxes and tool-boxes, and terraced with a labyrinth of wind-shields that mirrored a dozen suns. Sitting down behind many layers of glass in a sort of green leather conservatory, we started to town.
Which statement provides the best analysis of the symbolism in the passage?

B. The word "monstrous" conveys the abandonment of morality.
C. The repetition of the word "box" represents the constraints people place on themselves.
D. The car represents the decadence and excess of the 1920s.
