Select the correct text in the passage.A writer is using the following text to write a paper about men’s fashion:adapted excerpt from House Decorationby Oscar WildeAnd how shall men dress? Men say that they do not particularly care how they dress, and this it is little matter. I am bound to reply that I agree: I can observe that you do not give much thought to your fashion. In all my journeys through the country, the only well-dressed men that I saw — and in saying this, I truthfully do mean to criticize the trendy men of Fifth Avenue — were the Western miners. Their wide-brimmed hats, which shaded their faces from the sun and protected them from the rain, and their cloaks, which are the most beautiful pieces of drapery ever invented, are worthy of being admired. Their high boots, too, were sensible and practical. They wore only what was comfortable, and therefore beautiful.Which sentence in the writer’s paper should the writer revise to include an in-text citation?Men’s fashion isn’t discussed as often as women’s fashion is, but perhaps it should be. Most men wear simple outfits consisting of basic pants and shirts. However, there are actually many options available to men, despite the fact that they might not be familiar with certain historical and contemporary fashions. In fact, the nineteenth-century Western miners’ exquisite cloaks, large hats, and practical boots are excellent examples of high-quality men’s fashion.

"Who could live to gaze from day to day on bricks and slates who had once felt the influence of a scene like this? Who could continue to exist where there are no cows but the cows on the chimney-pots, nothing redolent of Pan but pan-tiles, no crop but stone crop? Who could bear to drag out a life in such a spot? Who, I ask, could endure it?" and, having cross-examined solitude after the most approved criteria, at considerable length, Mr. Pickwick thrust his head out of the lattice and looked around him.The rich, sweet smell of the hay-ricks rose to his chamber window, the hundred perfumes of the little flower-garden beneath scented the air around, the deep-green meadows shone in the morning dew that glistened on every leaf as it trembled in the gentle air, and the birds sang as if every sparkling drop were to them a fountain of inspiration.1Select the correct answer.Which statement best describes the mood as it is portrayed in the image compared to the way it is portrayed in the excerpt?
