Solution

The correct option is A Stubborn
'Obstinate' means stubbornly refusing to change one's opinion or chosen course of action, despite attempts to persuade one to do so.
"her obstinate determination to pursue a career in radio"
In this context, "He has always been too obstinate to admit he had been wrong", 'obstinate' means stubborn. Hence, option A is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
