C-Gulliver encounters an architect who builds houses from the top down.

An objective summary is one that merely states facts. It does not include opinion words. Options A, B, and D include opinion words: fooled, silly, ridiculous, oddly, and crazy. These options are all subjective summaries because they include the summary writer's thoughts and opinions about the architect.
