Getting up too was an equally short process. he jumped out of the box, shook himself, picked out one or two straws that had found their way into rents in his clothes, and, drawing a well-worn cap over his uncombed locks, he was all ready for the business of the day. d appearance as he stood beside the box was rather peculiar. his pants were torn in several places, and had apparently belonged in the first instance to a boy two sizes larger than himself. he wore a vest, all the buttons of which were gone except two, out of which peeped a shirt which looked as if it had been worn a month. to complete his costume he wore a coat too long for him, dating back, if one might judge from its general appearance, to a remote antiquity. washing the face and hands is usually considered proper in commencing the day, but d was above such refinement. he had no particular dislike to dirt, and did not think it necessary to remove several dark streaks on his face and hands. but in spite of his dirt and rags there was something about d that was attractive. it was easy to see that if he had been clean and well dressed he would have been decidedly good-looking. some of his companions were sly, and their faces inspired distrust; but d had a frank, straight-forward manner that made him a favorite. the word "peculiar," as used in the second paragraph of the passage, means the closest to which of these words? unusual unbalanced uncontrived unappealing
