Answer:

As the largest primates, gorillas look imposing. In reality, they eat plants, protect their families, and keep to themselves.

Explanation:

A paraphrase is a re-expression or re-statement of the meaning of an idea by using our own words, often done with the purpose of making the original content clearer, simpler and shorter.

Both options express the same thing of the original passage, however, the second option is not a good example of paraphrasing because it looks very similar to the original passage: it copies almost the exact same words while simply re-arranging the phrases of the original passage.

The first option, on the other hand, uses different words and phrases to express the idea of the original passage but in a more concise and simpler way.

Inigo, Fezzik and Vizzini attempt to escape a pursuing figure by climbing up a high cliff from the waters below.
