In choice (A), something that is incessant is nonstop or uninterrupted, so eliminate that choice. In choice (B), a mordant remark is sarcastic and harsh, so eliminate that choice. In choice (D), someone who is modish is fashionable and trendy, so eliminate that choice. Choice (C) contains antonyms.
