Answer:
Rodion is poverty stricken for the narrator tells us that he was in huge debt to his landlady, dressed shabbily and that he was 'crushed by poverty'.
He did not have a care about his looks for his heart was full of hatred and spiteful contempt for the outside world.
Explanation:
The character of Rodion is from Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment". He is shown as a poor ex- law student in need of money who commits a crime t fund his educational purposes.
We can know Rodion is "<em>poverty stricken</em>" by the way the writer had written in the very first chapter of the book. The narrator states "<em>He was hopelessly in debt to his landlady</em>" and that "<em>He was crushed by poverty</em>". Such was his condition, which we again see in the later lines "<em>He was so badly dressed that even a man accustomed to shabbiness would have been ashamed to be seen in the street in such rags</em>".
He wasn't bothered at all to wear his shabby clothes outside as he has too much of contempt and spite for the outside world. The narrator tells us that he had "<em>accumulated bitterness and contempt in the young man’s heart, that, in spite of all the fastidiousness of youth, he minded his rags least of all in the street</em>".
Option C shows what we should infer about the conversation between the king and the wounded man, that is, we can see that the king prefers peace and forgiveness to violence.
<h3>Why was the man hurt?</h3>
- The man wanted to kill the king.
- He was found by the king's bodyguards, who beat him.
The man was losing a lot of blood through the wounds and would die quickly. However, the king found him halfway and decided to help him, being kind and giving him forgiveness for his actions.
The wounded man began to admire the king, which shows that kindness and forgiveness are more efficient than violence to seal the peace between people.
