The phrase 'courtyards jostling together' implies :

  • A.being very far apart
  • B.being in different sizes and dimensions
  • C.being one on top of the other
  • D.being in close proximity

Answer: D

'Courtyards jostling together' implies being in close proximity.

To jostle is to push and bump against others in a crowd. Used of buildings or courtyards, it pictures them crowded close together, as if pressing against one another for space.

Being far apart is the opposite. Different sizes and dimensions is not implied by the verb, and 'one on top of the other' suggests stacking, while jostling suggests side-by-side crowding.
