Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai and then answer the question.

The strangers leaped out of their boats and pulled them up on the small beach. By signs, they made it clear the castaways should climb aboard. The fishermen exchanged frightened glances and whispered to one another, “What about Denzo and Jusuke?” Gesturing, Manjiro communicated to the strangers about the two men in the cave. Denzo and Jusuke were retrieved, both of them so weak they had to be carried to the boats. Everyone found a place and the sailors shoved off. The two boats rowed away from the island toward an unknown future. The sun flickered on the restless waves just as it always did. The wind blew just as steadily as it always had. Yet everything had changed. They had been rescued from the island, only to be taken captive by barbarians. Manjiro stared at the strangers when he thought they weren’t looking. Sometimes he caught them staring at him when they thought he wasn’t looking. What do the details in this excerpt help readers to infer about the barbarians?

They are just as mean and monstrous as the fishermen expect them to be.

They are suspicious creatures who seem to be from a place other than Earth.

They have a plan to humiliate the fishermen and are waiting for the right time.

They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them.

Sagot :

Answer:

In my opinion is They are just as curious about the fishermen as the fishermen are about them.

Explanation:

The texts says they're rescued then captivated but the sailors haven't done anything to them other than rescuing them from the island.

There is nothing relevant about suspicious creatures in the text.

Nowhere in the provided text there is said that the sailors are gonna do smth bad to the rescued ones. Nor there is a dialog between the sailors about the captives.

Whilst on line 16 till end the sailors and the rescued ppl glance at each other when they think the other one is not looking. Giving the idea of curiosity from both sides. (that's all I could see from the provided text. Hope it helps)

Answer:

They are just as curious

Explanation:

in the last few sentences, it’s mentioned that Manjiro stared at the strangers, meaning he’s curious. Sometimes he caught the barbarians watching him. The similar behavior of curiosity appearing in both parties is what I think is a big giveaway that d is the answer. There isn’t as much proof that the other answer choices are right.
