Answer:
C
Explanation:
Option C is the correct answer. This is because it is the option that best revises the paragraph in order to convey the same meaning as that of the paragraph while maintaining a formal tone.
In the other options, you discover a little deviation from the meaning of the paragraph towards the end of each of the other revised paragraphs. Option C is the only option that maintained the meaning.
Other options also have a kind of informal tone but only Option C maintained a formal or official tone.
From your question, I wrote my own story for you- I'm not sure your question was complete or not. Sorry if this isn't relevant.
Boy: John
Girl: Lily
Lily was walking down the hall, clutching some schoolbooks. John was looking in his locker, he then pulled out an enormous book.
Lily looked over, "Oh hey, John.. How are you?"
"Who are you?" John asked, confused.
"Oh- uh.. I'm Lily..." She said.
"The shy girl from 9th grade?" He inquired.
"Yeah," Lily replied.
"Well, nice to meet you," John said, "I gotta go to class now."
