In lines 49-51, the narrator describes his bal-loon journey toward the North Pole: “The wind is still from the south, bear-ing us steadily northward at the speed of a trotting dog.” In this context, the wind is “bearing,” or carrying, the narrator in a direction to the North.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because in this context, “bearing” does not mean affecting, yielding, or enduring.
