B Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is B because the blank modifies 'the man', requiring a present participle (-ing form) as an adjective. 'Hurrying down the road' describes the man's ongoing action. Option A 'hurried' is past tense, not a modifier. Option C 'hurry' is base form, not a modifier. Option D 'to hurry' is infinitive, not appropriate here.
