In this task, you're given a statement, and three sentences as choices. Your job is to determine which sentence clearly disagrees with the statement. Indicate your answer as '1', '2', or '3' corresponding to the choice number of the selected sentence.

Statement: I reached a point in reading The Complete Stories where the arrival of a new young woman in any given story made me roll my eyes--not because Malamud's masculine reveries are particularly scandalous, but because the reveries seem scandalously inadequate to the cosmic hintings of his other stories. Choices: 1. The Complete Stories pales in comparison to Malamud's other novels. 2. I was so enamored by Malamud's The Complete Stories. 3. The Complete Stories is surely not Malamud's best work.
