Which excerpt from "There’s a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella" illustrates why the man most likely c

ontinues to hit the narrator?
"It was the very same man who now, as I'm writing, keeps whacking me, mechanically and impassively, with an umbrella."
"On that occasion I turned around filled with indignation: he just kept on hitting me. I asked him if he was crazy: he didn’t even seem to hear me."
"Many times I have let him have it with punches, kicks, and even - God forgive me - umbrella blows. He would meekly accept the blows. He would accept them as though they were part of his job."
"And this is precisely the weirdest aspect of his personality: that unshakable faith in his work coupled with a complete lack of animosity."

The line "And this is precisely the oddest feature of his personality: that unshakable trust" describes why the man keeps hitting the narrator. thus, option D is correct.

<h3>What about the man is revealed in the excerpt?</h3>

According to the passage from the fourth answer option, the man displays "unwavering faith" and "absence of hatred." Another way to describe him is as having a stubborn personality but still being vulnerable to attack.

In light of this, we can select snippet four as the right response. Ironically, it also explains why the narrator beats the man while he continues to hit the man.
