Answer: 3) The narrator has been insulted many times and now vows revenge against Fortunato.

Explanation: All other options are the result of a poor understanding of the text: in a void, the "thousand injuries of Fortunato" could be understood as injuries that Fortunato has suffered, but the context lets us know it is the other way around as soon as we read "I had borne," which actually means "I have suffered" (borne is the past participle of bear, not of born). To <em>venture upon</em> here means to start doing something new, figuratively coming into a new territory, which, in this context, is injury.

I just finished this book for english class. you could say that the author used the phrase little boy to describe how even for jack being young he still turned out to be a terrible person. i think he’s trying to show us that anyone at any age can turn into a different person depending on the situation they are put in.
