Which quotation has the most similar effect to that of the answer to part a in how it contributes to the passage? question 4 options: “when and how he entered the department, and who appointed him, no one could remember. however much the directors and chiefs of all kinds were changed, he was always to be seen in the same place, the same attitude, the same occupation; so that it was afterwards affirmed that he had been born in undress uniform with a bald head.” (paragraph 1) “the young officials laughed at and made fun of him, so far as their official wit permitted; told in his presence various stories concocted about him, and about his landlady, an old woman of seventy; declared that she beat him; asked when the wedding was to be; and strewed bits of paper over his head, calling them snow. but akakiy akakievitch answered not a word, any more than if there had been no one there besides himself.” (paragraph 2) “enjoyment was written on his face: some letters were even favourites with him; and when he encountered these, he smiled, winked, and worked with his lips, till it seemed as though each letter might be read in his face, as his pen traced it. if his pay had been in proportion to his zeal, he would, perhaps, to his great surprise, have been made even a councillor of state.” (paragraph 3) “so he was ordered to make a report of an already concluded affair, to another department: the duty consisting simply in changing the heading, and altering a few words from the first to the third person. this caused him so much toil, that he broke into a perspiration, rubbed his forehead, and finally said, ‘no, give me rather something to copy.’ after that they let him copy on forever.” (paragraph 4)
