Had to look for the options and here is my answer. Based on the given lines from the poem "A Meeting with Despair" written by Thomas Hardy, the line that shows that the poet still finds some hope despite the despair is this: "I glanced aloft and halted, pleasure-caught". Hope this helps.
Solution 1: The miller is employed at a mill and is worried that his anti-milling family & friend(s) might disapprove with his career choice(s).
Solution 2: The anti-miller is boycotting mills with his anti-milling family, friend(s) and/or coworker(s). This demonstrates his obvious lack of care for pro-miller’s opinion(s) of him while showing the opposite to the anti-millers. Consequently, his strong opposition towards mills won’t allow him to work at one and he’s now unemployed in a coincidentally mill-dominant city.
Solution 3: The miller is employed at a mill and is therefore highly regarded by his pro-milling family/friend(s)/coworkers.
Solution 4: The closeted anti-miller has no choice but to work at a mill due to his lack of self respect and untimely need for funds. The anti-miller’s choice(s) have begun to bring him a great deal of negativity from those whom know of his hidden anti-mill views. He’s unconfident in himself now that he’s essentially living a lie. His coworkers unknowingly, and rightfully so, add to his turmoil with their pro-mill commentary.
Solution 5: Everything and anything having to do with mills and milling is wiped from existence in it’s entirety. (This solution leaves you with no mill-related problem to have ever occurred and doesn’t give chance to any mill-related problem to happen.)
Answer:
The background knowledge that when he was treating humans and kept pets, people stopped coming to him for treatment and he became poor.
Explanation:
While reading the story, Sweet T must have read of the time when Doctor Dolittle was treating humans and kept a lot of pets. People did not like the animals and they soon stopped coming to him for treatments. He began losing money and soon became very poor.
This background knowledge would help Sweet T make the inference that since pet owners were scared of bringing their sick pets to Dr. Dolittle, he would be losing money and would soon become poor again.
