Ruby, you said you had a favor to ask of me?

Um, I'm doing our modern Japanese homework right now, but I don't get any of it!

I see. Well, then…

I suppose there's no helping it. Which part are you having trouble with?

This bit here. It says that I have to pick what the author was trying to express out of these four options.

…I see. That certainly is a slightly difficult way to phrase things.

Right? When I read the question, I had even less of a clue which answer was the right one.

Then let's use the process of elimination to proceed. Of the four options, three of them should say something that differs slightly from the question.

Relax, then carefully read through the answers and compare them.

Oh! I think number one might be saying something different!

Then we can exclude that one. What about the others?

Hmm… Number two doesn't seem all that odd, and neither does number three. Number four…doesn't feel quite right.

There. Now you've narrowed it down to two. Between those, one of them ought to be worded a little differently.

I've got it! The answer is number three! Number two goes against what the question asks partway through!

That's correct! Well done, Ruby.

I got it right because of you, Dia! Thanks!

I only offered some advice. You came to the correct answer all on your own.

So once you've finished your homework, let's eat something sweet together.

Yaaay! Okay, I'll do my Rubesty!

*Chuckle* Well then, let us move on to the next question.
