The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man - Ch 1

What sentence best supports the idea that the stanger is "mysterious?"

a) "Although the fire was burning up briskly, she was surprised to see that her visitor still wore his hat and coat, standing with his back to her and staring out of the window at the falling snow in the yard. His gloved hands were clasped behind him, and he seemed to be lost in thought." (Par 2)

b) "She noticed that the melting snow that still sprinkled his shoulders dripped upon her carpet." (Par 2)

c) "Can I take your hat and coat, sir,' she asked, 'and give them a good dry in the kitchen?' 'No,' he said without turning." (Par 2-3)

d) "He made no answer, and had turned his face away from her again. Mrs. Hall, feeling that her attempts at conversation were ill-timed, set the rest of the table quickly and whisked out of the room." (Par 7)
