The quay was soon covered with the usual crowd of curious onlookers, for the arrival of a ship is always a great event in the to

wn of
Marseilles, especially when, like the Pharaon, it has been built, rigged and laden in the city and belongs to a local shipowner.
Meanwhile the vessel was approaching the harbor, but so slowly and with such an air of melancholy that the onlookers, instinctively sensing
misfortune, began to wonder what accident could have happened on board. However, the experienced seamen among them saw that if
there had been an accident, it could not have happened to the ship herself, for she had every appearance of being under perfect control.
Standing beside the pilot, who was preparing to steer the Pharaon through the narrow entrance of the harbor, was a young man who, with
vigilant eyes and rapid gestures, watched every movement of the ship and repeated each of the pilot's orders.
The vague anxiety hovering over the crowd affected one man so much that he could not wait until the ship entered the harbor: he leaped
into a small boat and ordered the boatman to row him out to meet the Pharaon.
What does the phrase "for the arrival of a ship is always a great event in Marseilles" suggest about the town of Marseilles?
A
The town looked forward to change and innovation
B.
The town relied on ships for news from other towns
C.
The town arranged parades for ships entering the harbor.
