$1$. '$monstrous$' is spelled correctly and fits the context of describing a large,frightening snake.
$2$. '$snake$' is spelled correctly and is the subject of the sentence.
$3$. '$hollow$' is spelled correctly and fits the context of a snake emerging from a hole or a hollow log.
Since all words are spelled correctly and are contextually appropriate,the correct choice is '$D$'.

$2$. '$dysfunctional$' means not operating normally or properly.
$3$. '$projecting$' means extending outward beyond something else or estimating/forecasting something on the basis of present trends.

Solution

(C) The correct word should be $sooner$ instead of $soon$. The sentence structure follows the pattern 'The + comparative adjective/adverb,the + comparative adjective/adverb'. Therefore,'The $sooner$ he adjusts to a novel $situation$,the $faster$ he will be $rewarded$' is the grammatically correct form.
