Which details from the text best support the central idea? Select two options. A. "You appear to be mistaken about me." B. "Do not imagine that I am so unjust as to blame you." C. "I wish to set you right." "I understand your situation and can pity you." D. "I have acquired all the wealth and luxury that you see me enjoy."

"Oh!" replied Sindbad, "do not imagine that I am so unjust as to blame you. On the contrary, I understand your situation and can pity you. Only you appear to be mistaken about me, and I wish to set you right. You doubtless imagine that I have acquired all the wealth and luxury that you see me enjoy without difficulty or danger, but this is far indeed from being the case. I have only reached this happy state after having for years suffered every possible kind of toil and danger.

Veronica Goodman · Answer 1

there are two answers "you appear to be mistaken about me", and "I wish to set you right"

Jace · Answer 2

The answer is A: You appear to be mistaken about me.

Sindbad understands that the person he is talking to formed a opinion about him that he doesn't consider right, so he tries to clarify issues by explaining how he acquired all the wealth and luxury, which was after having all kinds of difficulties and danger, and not by an easy way as the person had probably imagined.
