Ebenezer Scrooge is the protagonist (main character) of ‘A Christmas Carol’. He is a banker or ‘moneylender’ of sorts who owned his own ‘counting house’ alongside his late business partner Jacob Marley.
In the opening of the novella, Scrooge is presented as a miserly and misanthropic (someone who dislikes other people) businessman with a strong aversion to Christmas and the society around him in general. :)
I hope this helps
As far as I understood, your answer is the very last option
An antonym would be "Crucial"
I believe the correct answer is <span>A. "I know your worth and price and my debts by no means slight I swear."
This is the only option that talks about loyalty at all - the quote says that this person knows what he is supposed to do and that he should be loyal to his master, the king. The other options have nothing to do with chivalry, so I would pick A.

In F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby, Nick Carraway feels that Daisy and Gatsby's relation will most certainly end poorly. Nick believes that the couple's relationship is structured upon illusion, at least on the part of Gatsby. Nick believes that Gatsby is attempting, through his relationship with Daisy, to relive the past in order to create a new future. Furthermore, Nick feels that Daisy's affections for Gatsby is owed not to any sort of true, emotional love, but rather an attraction to his wealth.
