The right answer is the A) The narrator is uncomfortable and defensive.

Explanation: It is possible to conclude that this character is uncomfortable and defensive because he is ostensibly, and almost exaggeratedly, boasting about his abilities ("I am not just a boy who plays tennis. I have an intricate history. Experiences and feelings. I’m complex. ‘I read,’ I say. ‘I study and read. I bet I've read everything you’ve read [...] I consume libraries. I wear out spines and ROM-drives. I do things like get in a taxi and say, “The library, and step on it [...]"), he is presupposing that the people he is talking to don't see it that way ("Don’t think I haven’t") and he is even considering himself superior to them ("My instincts concerning syntax and mechanics are better than your own"). This indicates a defensive and insecure attitude, typical of a person who may be indeed intellectually superior (as Hal Incandenza is), but who feels neither confident nor comfortable with his talent, and thinks that the others actually understimate him.
