Which of the following answers best paraphrases this sentence: The strange, dirty, hairy man stood in the shadows between the tall buildings watching as the people passed by in the late afternoon. When he saw the beautiful lady pass by with her fancy purse and her books under her arm, he knew who his next contact would be. He walked up to her and asked nicely if she could tell him where the public library was. She looked startled but when she realized he was lost in the city, she offered to walk with him, so that he could arrive quickly and get home before dark.

Dude gets help with his books.

A man who seems sketchy at first asks a lady for help, and she actually helps him. He was just lost in the city.

This creepy man was following this lady all over the city and he was super smelly, ate trash, and wore only one shoe. He had a fake eye.

This snobby lady went to the library.
