Solution

The correct option is A The chaplain
The last line of the first paragraph mentions about Mr.Slope telling Mr.Harding rather harshly that he is being replaced as the warden of the hospital. This sentence uses the words 'chaplain's harangue' which means a clergy man or priest's lengthy speech referring to Mr.Slope's speech to Mr. Harding. So, the most appropriate word to fill in the blank is option A) Chaplain.
