B Correct answer
Explanation

Waxing moon refers to the lunar phase when the illuminated portion is increasing, making it appear brighter or more 'shiny' over successive nights. This is the correct context for describing a moon that looks shiny. 'Whining' means complaining, 'willing' means ready/agreeable, and 'wafering' is not a standard English word relevant to lunar phases.
