Select the correct text in the passage.
Read the excerpt from "A Computer Can Now Translate Languages as well as a Human" by Vanessa Bates Ramirez.
I remember standing on the platform at Tokyo Station watching my train to Nagano---the last train of the day-pulling away without me on
it. What ensued was a frustrating hour of gestures, confused smiles, and head-shaking as I wandered the station looking for someone who
spoke English (my Japanese is unfortunately nonexistent). It would have been really helpful to have a bilingual pal along with me to
translate.
Which dictionary entry defines the word ensued as used in the excerpt?
en suein-50 verb
1. to strive to attain
2. to take place afterward
3. to occur as a result of
4. to seek peace
