Question

Which quotation from the passage best sets out the main problem faced by the narrator? "i began to conceive hopes of getting my liberty in a short time." "the natives came, by degrees, to be less apprehensive of any danger from me." "i had now made a good progress in understanding and speaking the language." "i was diverted with none so much as that of the rope-dancers."?

Answer 1

"I was diverted with none so much as that of the rope-dancers."
