Question

Which excerpt from “A Chip of Glass Ruby” most effectively supports the inference that Bamgee craves the attention he receives from neighbors after his wife is imprisoned? (Select all that apply.) A Chip of Glass Ruby
“When they were gone, it was as if he, who was orthodox if not devout and never drank liquor, had been drunk and abruptly sobered up; he looked dazed and could not have gone over in his mind what he had been saying.”

“It was only when relations and neighbors came to the house that Bamjee would suddenly begin to talk. He had never been so expansive in his life as he was in the company of these visitors.”

“For the first few weeks he never spoke of her. There was the feeling, in the house, that he had wept and raged at her, that boulders of reproach had thundered down upon her absence, and yet he had said not one word.”

“He had a sudden vision of her at the duplicating machine, that night just before she was taken away, and he felt himself maddened, baffled, and hopeless.”
