b. listen with empathy

The key characteristic for one listening with empathy is to give the speaker your undivided attention.  Because Jeff fell asleep, he obviously had not been providing this.  Further, when one is empathetic, one is able to understand the position/place of someone else.  Obviously, if Jeff were speaking, he would want his audience to pay attention, so he should have recognized this and been conscious of that for Elizabeth.  By Jeff falling asleep, he does not understand the perspective of someone else in order to recognize how to respectfully listen (or listen with empathy).

Which descriptive details from the text best help the reader visualize the specific early Victorian tea set that is the central
iogann1982 [59]
I believe you are referring to this text: 

<span>In the eighteenth century Josiah Wedgwood had made some of the most expensive stoneware ceramics – in jasper and basalt – in Britain, but this tea set shows that by the 1840s, when Wedgwood produced it, the company was aiming at a much wider market. This is quite clearly mid-range pottery, simple earthenware of a sort that many quite modest British households were then able to afford. But the owners of this particular set must have had serious social aspirations, because all three pieces have been decorated with a drape of lacy hallmarked silver.

From the text, the descriptive detail that best aids the reader to visualize the central topic which is a specific early Victorian tea set is "</span><span>some of the most expensive stoneware</span>".
