*Read the line from the passage and answer the question that follows. " I dare say there are fellows in the world—men of blood and iron, don't you know, and all that sort of thing—whom she couldn't intimidate; but if you're a chappie like me, fond of a quiet life, you simply curl into a ball when you see her coming, and hope for the best."
-Which of these sentences is the most accurate paraphrase of this line? a- Agatha wouldn't intimidate a hero, but I'm a villain. b- Agatha wouldn't intimidate a scoundrel, but I'm a gentle person. c- Agatha wouldn't intimidate a tougher man, but I'm a coward. d- Agatha wouldn't intimidate a violent man, but I'm a weakling.
I'd say C, because she can intimidate tougher men, but he said "whom she couldn't intimidate; but if you're a chappie like me, fond of a quiet life, you simply curl into a ball when you see her coming" implying being coward like where he'd curl up and hide.
