How does the king of Salem influence the boy's action in Tarifa?
A. He used the thief to teach the boy a lesson about trust, which leads the boy to be more suspicious of strangers
b. The stones he gave Santiago help the boy to recognize omens, which ill help him on his journey to find his Personal Legend.
c. He uses magic to ensure the boy meets the crystal merchant, which gives the boy an example of someone living his Personal Legend.
d. He speaks to the boy and encourages him to respect his sheep, which encourages the boy to remain a shepherd.

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )
