Which phrase from the poem best supports the answer to part a ?

Which part of this excerpt from Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island best shows that the narrator was not pleased with the new look of the
Admiral Benbow Inn?
The next morning he and I set out on foot for the Admiral Benbow, and there I found my mother in good health and spirits. The captain, who
had so long been a cause of so much discomfort, was gone where the wicked cease from troubling. The squire had had everything repaired, and
the public rooms and the sign repainted, and had added some furniture --above all a beautiful armchair for mother in the bar. He had found
her a boy as an apprentice also so that she should not want help while I was gone.
It was on seeing that boy that I understood, for the first time, my situation. I had thought up to that moment of the adventures before me, not at
all of the home that I was leaving; and now, at sight of this clumsy stranger, who was to stay here in my place beside my mother, I had my first
attack of tears. I am afraid I led that boy a dog's life, for as he was new to the work, I had a hundred opportunities of setting him right and
putting him down, and I was not slow to profit by them.
The night passed, and the next day, after dinner, Redruth and I were afoot again and on the road. I said good-bye to Mother and the cove where
I had lived since I was born, and the dear old Admiral Benbow-since he was repainted, no longer quite so dear. One of my last thoughts was of
the captain, who had so often strode along the beach with his cocked hat, his sabre-cut cheek, and his old brass telescope. Next moment we had
turned the corner and my home was out of sight.

The Ruined Man Who Became Rich Again Through a Dream
An adaptation of a story from 1,001 Arabian Nights



Once there lived in the city of Chongqing a very wealthy man who lost all his belongings and his treasures and became very poor. He was so poor that he could only earn his living by laboring day and night. One night, extremely late, he lay down to rest. He was exhausted, dejected, and sick at heart. He fell into a deep sleep and dreamt that a wise old soul came to him and said, "Your fortune is in the city of Beijing; go there and seek it."



The next day, he set out for Beijing. He arrived there deep into the night and he lay down to sleep for a bit in a hostel. Presently, as fate would have it, a company of thieves entered the hostel. They made their way into the house that adjoined the hostel. Soon, the people of the house, aroused by the noise, awoke and cried out, "thieves, thieves!" An alarm was raised and the chief of the police came to their aid with his officers. The robbers made off, but the police entered the hostel and found the man from Chongqing asleep there. They cast him into prison, where they kept him for three days. The chief of police sent for him and said, "Where did you come from?"



"From Chongqing," whispered the man.



"And what brought you to Beijing?" asked the chief.



"I saw in a dream an old soul who said to me, 'Thy fortune is at Beijing; go there at once to find it.' But, when I came here, the fortune that I was promised proved to be an arrest and a jail stay."



The chief of the police laughed until he showed his white, wide, broad teeth. He said to the man from Chongqing, "O man of little wit! Three times have I seen an old soul in a dream who said to me, 'There is a fashion house in Chongqing, with a fountain in the front garden. Under the fountain, there is buried treasure- a great sum of money. Go there and take it.' Of course I did not go. You, on the other hand, you of little wit, have journeyed from place to place, on the faith of a dream, which was but an illusion of sleep."



Then the chief of police gave the man from Chongqing money, saying, "This is to help you get back to your native land."



Now, the house that the chief described was the man's very own house in Chongqing! When he traveled home, he immediately dug underneath the fountain in his garden and discovered a great treasure! He received an abundant fortune in his own yard!

Racing to Race
Carlo stopped to rest for a minute and tried to catch his breath. He’d been running for so long that he had pains in his side and his legs were beginning to hurt. He hunched over and tried to expand his lungs, but it was like trying to suck air out of a bicycle tire. His body was too exhausted to even allow him to take a deep breath, and he started to wheeze again. “Great,” he thought, “let me just add asthma to my expanding list of ailments. I can’t believe that I can’t even jog two miles without completely collapsing!” He finally gave in to his aching body and laid down on the grass to recuperate. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself running on the school track in the 1,600-meter race. He pictured himself running steadily toward the finish line, running effortlessly like a cheetah in the jungle. He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear Meiya approach. “Hey sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Sean’s lawn in the middle of the day?” Meiya asked playfully. Carlo quickly sat up, breathing normally now and feeling a little embarrassed. “I am trying to get in shape to try out for track, but I can’t even run two miles,” he said dejectedly. “Wait, how many months are you out of surgery? Didn’t you just finish rehab last week?” Meiya asked. “You can’t expect to run two miles the first day.” It had been six months since Carlo’s surgery and he specifically remembered the doctor telling him he could start running after six months. But he thought about what Meiya had said and realized she had a good point. After his surgery, the doctor did say rehab would be crucial to his recovery but that it would take time for him to gain back full use of his leg. He thought about how a baby had to learn to walk before it could run. He remembered when his nephew was learning to crawl; within days it seemed like he was walking. Running didn’t come right away, Carlo remembered. He realized it was the same with his therapy. The maximum he had run in the past month was one mile on the treadmill, so he realized that Meiya was probably right. He would have to work at building up his endurance and set more realistic goals for himself. As he thought about what he had already accomplished, he started to smile and felt like a weight was being lifted off his shoulders. He realized that he had run almost a mile and a half before his body started to protest and if he kept working hard, he could get back to where he was before his accident. “Since when did you get so smart, Dr. Meiya?” he teased. “Do you want to race to the next mailbox?” “You’re on!” she challenged and took off running at full speed.
