Answer:

b) He gives a detailed description of the slow sound Farquhar’s watch makes as it ticks.

Step-by-step explanation:

As time moves slowly in this scene, Bierce introduces the theme of the subjectivity of time and how each character perceives time differently. In this scene, the slow ticking of the watch shows how time goes by slowly for Farquhar.
