Answer:

d. blubbering

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "blubbering" is used sarcastically, a type of deboxe for when you cry for a futile reason, or for no reason at all. In other words, this word is used when someone's cry is superficial, unimportant and for no apparent reason.

For this reason, we can say that this word will not be used to describe the cry of an intimate friend who has lost a loved one. This is because the cry of this friend has a serious reason, which makes him sad.
