7 0

Nick learns from Jordan Baker the details of Tom's behavior in Santa Barbara after his and Daisy's honeymoon. She tells Nick that Tom was involved in a car accident that made the newspapers. He was with another woman, a maid at the Santa Barbara Hotel. Her arm was broken. This shows Tom's infidelity began early in his marriage and continued. Daisy was aware of it (everyone who read the newspaper was aware of it), but she remained in her marriage and gave birth to their daughter several months later.

I would say the best answer is A, he hides behind a tree. I was in between A and D, but one can run in a park. 

B wouldn't work because him being dressed in ordinary street clothes doesn't show that he's afraid of something.

C wouldn't work because although yes, he was panting, that could mean that he's just tired; not necessarily, scared.

The man hiding behind the tree is the best evidence for the conclusion of him being afraid of something. Also in the passage it states, "....he moved behind a tree. Seeming not to notice my presence, he stood with his back against the trunk, panting."
