Read this excerpt from “my last duchess” by robert browning:

—and if she let
herself be lessoned so, nor plainly set
her wits to yours, forsooth, and made excuse,
—e'en then would be some stooping: and i choose
never to stoop. oh, sir, she smiled, no doubt,
whene'er i passed her; but who passed without
much the same smile? this grew; i gave commands;
then all smiles stopped together.

what conclusion can you draw about the speaker's character?

he seems passive.
he is extremely arrogant.
he has a stooping gait.
he is very somber.

The answer is indeed letter b. He is extremely arrogant.

The poem "My Last Duchess" has as its probable speaker the fifth Duke of Ferrara, Alfonso II d'Este. He married 14-year-old  Lucrezia di Cosimo de' Medici, who died at the age of 17 - rumor has it she was poisoned. In the poem, the Duke's arrogant and jealous nature can be noticed. His wife's beauty and gaiety seemed to irritate him. The fact that her smiles were not directed only to him made him want to have them stop completely. He "gave commands" and the smiles did, in fact, stop.

she is outspoken and direct
