Answer:

C "It suggests that the sculptor felt contempt for Ozymandias."

Explanation:

Ozymandias was a cruel ruler so it would take out D "It shows that the sculptor highly respected Ozymandias." as an answer. Mock means "tease or laugh at in a scornful or contemptuous manner." so that would take out B "It demonstrates that the sculptor was a relative of Ozymandias." and A "It indicates that the sculptor was afraid of Ozymandias." as an answer. Contempt means the act of despising which goes perfectly as the answer.
