PART B: Which TWO details from the text best support the answer to Part A?

A. “‘Capital punishment kills a man at once, but lifelong imprisonment kills him
slowly. Which executioner is the more humane, he who kills you in a few
minutes or he who drags the life out of you in the course of many years?’”
(Paragraph 1)
B. “‘Think better of it, young man, while there is still time. To me two million is a
trifle, but you are losing three or four of the best years of your life. I say three or
four, because you won’t stay longer.’” (Paragraph 11)
C. “Desperate gambling on the Stock Exchange, wild speculation and the
excitability which he could not get over even in advancing years, had by degrees
led to the decline of his fortune and the proud, fearless, self-confident
millionaire had become a banker of middling rank, trembling at every rise and
fall in his investments.” (Paragraph 22)
D. “‘he is asleep and most likely dreaming of the millions. And I have only to take
this half-dead man, throw him on the bed, stifle him a little with the pillow, and
the most conscientious expert would find no sign of a violent death.’” (Paragraph
30)
E. “At no other time, even when he had lost heavily on the Stock Exchange, had he
felt so great a contempt for himself. When he got home he lay on his bed, but
his tears and emotion kept him for hours from sleeping.” (Paragraph 38)
F. “To avoid arousing unnecessary talk, he took from the table the writing in which
the millions were renounced, and when he got home locked it up in the
fireproof safe.” (Paragraph 39)
