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.

Dr. King makes his points in order from which they first occured so that the audience of whoever it be that reads the two excerpts can see and understand when the order of events took place. If they were to occur in random order, the audience would be confused and not understand the idea of the passage. Keeping things in order is key to having a strong excerpt, essay, poem etc.
