The correct answer is the following: <em>option B. At the end of the sentence provided in the question the narrator alludes to the possibility of requiring a wife who could match Adam social standards.</em>

"The Million Pound Bank-Note" is a short story written by American author Mark Twain that was first published in 1893. It tells the story  of an American man named Henry who is poor and now living in he city of London. Henry Adams is given an envelope with a 1.000.000 pound bank-note that in the case that he would try to exchange it in the bank, would probably send him to prison. Still Henry  starts to see how by having that bank-note in his power, people are assured that he is wealthy and therefore he can live in the city as a rich man, without ever spending the 1.000.000 pound bank-note.

This is why the narrator is alluding that Adams requires a wife who could match Adam social standards. She can be cheerful in moments there was no reason to be cheerful at all, and Adams knows that his social status can suddenly drastically change, and he needs someone like her by his side.

<h3>What is syllable?</h3>

A syllable is an organizational unit for a sequence of speech sounds that normally consists of a syllable nucleus (usually a vowel) with optional starting and terminal borders (typically, consonants). Syllables are frequently regarded as the phonological "building blocks" of words. They can impact a language's rhythm, prosody, poetic meter, and stress patterns. Speech is normally separated into a single syllable: for example, the word ignite is made up of two syllables: ig and night. Syllabic writing predated the initial letters by several hundred years. The first syllables were inscribed on tablets in the Sumerian city of Ur circa 2800 BC. This transition from pictograms to syllables has been described as "the most significant development in the history of writing."
