Your question is missing the option and is, therefore, incomplete. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Read the excerpt from "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock." Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets, The muttering retreats Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells: How is this excerpt an example of dramatic monologue?

A. The narrator is using long, interconnected sentences.

B. The narrator is able to see into two character’s heads.

C. The narrator is addressing the audience directly.

D. The narrator is jumping from one topic to the next topic.

C. The narrator is addressing the audience directly.

Explanation:

The poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" is a dramatic monologue. The speaker is addressing someone, unveiling his thoughts and emotions, his fears and concerns. That is the typical characteristic of dramatic monologues: in the form of a speech or a narrative, the speaker reveals his emotions, actions, or motives. Since the poem does not offer an interlocutor to Prufrock's words, it is safe to assume he is speaking directly to his audience, to his readers ("The narrator is addressing the audience directly" is the best answer for that reason). When he says, "you and I", or "let us", it is the reader he is inviting, as if the reader is the only friend he'll ever have. Prufrock is, therefore, speaking his mind, even though he does not wish for a response.
