Answer: a. like a man stung

Explanation:

I could not find the paragraph that is missing in your question but I have found on the internet that this question is probably referring to the ''West Side Story'' 8th Grade my Perspectives ELA End-of-Year Test (Online)  and the correct answer is A) Like a man stung.

I hope that this will help you in order to connect the correct answer with the paragraph.
