Answer:
The highwayman's anger was caused by the discovery of the death of Bess, the girl he loved.
Explanation:
The poem "The Highwayman" by Alfred Noyes tells the story of an unnamed highwayman falling in love with the daughter of an innkeeper. But the betrayal of Tim, the ostler, led Bess, the girl to sacrifice her life to save the highwayman from getting killed by the authorities.
The lines <em>"back he spurred like a madman, shouting a curse to the sky"</em> shows his anger at discovering that Bess had been killed while trying to save him. This was her way of making sure that he did not get captured and then tortured by the authorities, thereby showing her love for him. Thus, <u>the anger in him was a result of knowing Bess, his lover, had died at the hands of the authorities who were waiting for him.</u>
The statement that is implied by the sentence from the story is "Poor people were expected to tolerate any ridicule made by the rich," as stated in option C.
<h3>What does the passage imply?</h3>
The passage from Mark Twain's "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note" is narrated by a poor man. As a matter of fact, he is so poor that, even though he feels mistreated, he does not believe he can do anything about it. After all, those who mistreated him are rich.
We can say, thus, that the passage implies that poor people were expected to tolerate any ridicule made by the rich. So much so that the narrator walks away feeling insulted, but does not do anything to confront those who insulted him.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option C as the correct answer.
