1) 'The owner of the axe, as he released his hold on it, said that it was the apple of his eye; but I returned it sharper than I
received it." What does the quotation from the passage emphasize about the speaker?
es
A) He does not take care of other people's property.
B) He is indifferent toward other people's property.
He was disappointed in the poor quality of the axe.
D) He is appreciative and respectful of the property of others.
I would say the answer is D, as it means that if you loan something to someone with good intention they will use it gratefully and it will come back sharper than it was.
