Answer: A. “was eager to” “drew near”

Explanation:

As explained, something that is irresistible has an appeal that cannot be denied. When something is irresistible therefore, it tends to draw people towards it.

The people in this chapter were eager to do something with the men who stood at ease because they found the sight irresistible and so wanted to act on the feelings of attraction that they had. This was why they were drawn near to the scene.
