Please help and hurry Alfonso studied the magazine pictures of rock stars for a hairstyle. He liked the way Prince looked—and the bass player from Los Lobos. Alfonso thought he would look cool with his hair razored into a V in the back and streaked purple. But he knew his mother wouldn’t go for it. And his father, who was puro Mexicano, would sit in his chair after work, sullen as a toad, and call him "sissy.”

Alfonso didn’t dare color his hair. But one day he had it butched on the top, like in the magazines. His father had come home that evening from a softball game, happy that his team had drilled four homers in a thirteen-to-five bashing of Color Tile. He’d swaggered into the living room but had stopped cold when he saw Alfonso and asked, not joking but with real concern, "Did you hurt your head at school? ¿Qué pasó?”

A student is writing a paragraph that makes the point that Alfonso’s father is not a very likable character. Which would provide the best example of this point?

Soto’s description of the father swaggering and being “sullen as a toad”
Soto’s description of the father as “happy that his team had drilled four homers”
Soto’s description of the father who would just “sit in his chair” and had just “stopped cold”
Soto’s description of the father asking “with real concern” if Alfonso hurt his head
