The answer to question 9 is (B). This question requires the reader to first locate in the passage the person
referred to in the question, in this instance, the captain. Once this is done, determining what the character
decides to do should be relatively simple. The reader should not be led astray by references to situations
or words that are found in the passage but do not fit in the context of a given question; (A) is incorrect
because the captain has already had dinner (he is not about to start); (C) is incorrect because the anglais
the captain mentions refers to a ship in his story; (D) is incorrect because the captain obviously does not
remain silent since he takes up, once again, the conversation they were having at dinner.
