Answer: C. It provides a concrete description of the bandit’s appearance.

Explanation: In literature, writers can use a wide variety of words to portray a character's actions or personality. The reader then imagines a scene that is closer to what the writer has in mind. Michelle used the verb "weasel" to contribute to the tone of the sentence, and imply that not only was the bandit passing through women, but he was sneaking and achieving his purpose by rudely making his way and scaping. This choice creates a better description of how he appeared in the scene.
