Context: Someone else who was mowing the lawn borrowed my lighter ( I have it especially to use for fondues . Really . And , incidentally , was given it by another random person at a gas station ) and struck up conversation as he took a break from his work . One of my nicest encounters was on my walk to work , a couple months ago , when an old man was walking his dog . " You 're late today , " he said .
Question Why did the old man comment that the speaker was late today ?
Possible answers:
Choose from: - He is used to seeing her walk at a specific time - He grew impatient while waiting for her to arrive - He was angry that it had taken her so long to show up - None of the above choices .
The answer:
He is used to seeing her walk at a specific time
