As you read the passage, which of these answers makes sense when it comes to Elmer? Looking through it, I see that Elmer was a child at the time of the story and was on an adventure. So, to say he was lazy does not make sense. Since he was a child looking for a dragon, it is unlikely that bravery was a part of this scenario. That leaves foolish or lost. He as stood there for awhile watching the lion, so I would say that foolish is the best answer.
