Summary
An hour later, Walter’s loss of the insurance money fills the apartment with “a sullen light of gloom.” Asagai enters the apartment to visit Beneatha, who is deeply upset about the lost money. Beneatha explains the situation to Asagai and he asks her how she is doing. Beneatha responds, “Me? . . . Me, I’m nothing.” She then recounts the story behind her initial desire to become a doctor, telling Asagai of a childhood friend who was severely injured in a sledding accident. Beneatha tells Asagai that she was amazed that “one person could . . . sew up the problem, make him all right again,” although she states that she has now lost her youthful idealism.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
1. Brian told Joe that he thinks he is a genius.
Explanation:
The revision that would best improve the original sentence is the first one.
In the second sentence, Joe is mentioned twice, which is not necessary and sounds somewhat awkward (despite making it a bit clearer whether Brian thinks that he himself or Joe is a genius).
In the third sentence, Joe is mentioned once, but in the second half of the sentence. That's why we could think that Brian told someone else that Joe is a genius.
The fourth sentence is the second best. The phrase <em>his friend</em>, though, doesn't contribute to the revision in any way, which makes it unnecessary.
That leaves us with the first option is the best one.
