Answer 1

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the excerpt from The Dark Game.

Mr. H. quickly began talking to his contacts in the city.  Soon he heard of a British printer in Mexico City who had  been falsely arrested for printing counterfeit money. Mr.  H. Intervened with the British minister, who got the  frightened printer released from custody and the charges  against him dropped. The printer, overjoyed to be free,  told Mr. H. that he would welcome the opportunity to  repay the agent for his intervention. As a matter of fact,  Mr. H. told him, there was a favor the printer could do for  him

 Which inference can a reader make based on the  information in the excerpt?

A. Mr. H. knew the printer would help them upon release  from prison  B. Mr. H. was very concerned for the falsely imprisoned  printer.  C. Mr. H. and the printer had known each other for a long  time.  D. Mr. H. originally had not intended to employ the  printer's help.

Answer:

A.) Mr. H. Knew the printer would help them upon release in the prison.

Explanation:

In the text above, we can see that Mr. H. needed the services of a printer and when he heard of one who was imprisoned, unfairly, he went to great lengths to free the printer. He did this with second intentions, because if the printer was falsely accused and someone released him, the printer would be very grateful and would not refuse to help that someone out of gratitude.

In other words, we can say that this excerpt shows us that Mr. H. knew that the printer would help them after their release in prison.
