Explanation:

Without the actual passage, we can only analyze the options based on general character - trait understanding. Option A shows ruthlessness, Option B shows stubbornness, Option C shows immaturity, and Option D shows intelligence. However, to accurately determine Natalya's character, we would need to refer to the passage. But assuming we are evaluating the logic of the options, making logical arguments to force someone to accept defeat can be seen as a sign of intelligence.

Answer:

D. Natalya is intelligent because she makes logical arguments that force Lomov to accept defeat.
