Answer:

The answer is D. The wind

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because everything in the paragraph remained the same before the wind blew. Before the wind, she just stood in the sidewalk, she also felt stuck in her life, her priority then was to cross the street.

After the wind blew, her thought process changed.

At that point it was no longer trying to cross the street that was her priority, neither was her stuck career her thought. Rather, her direction changed to first gather the papers. Then,her thought was wondering where they may lead.

The wind brought about the change in the paragraph.
