hat is implied in the last line of this excerpt from Mark Twain's "The £1,000,000 Bank-Note"?

As I approached the house my excitement began to abate, for all was quiet there, which made me feel pretty sure the blunder was not discovered yet. I rang. The same servant appeared. I asked for those gentlemen.

"They are gone." This in the lofty, cold way of that fellow's tribe.

Respuesta :

D) that most servants in London have to live in poor conditions and frequently suffer from cold
that the servants in London are prohibited from being friendly with their master's guests

Answer:

A) that the servant hails from a different country and most likely migrated to England for employment.

Explanation:

The last line of the passage states that the servant answered in a "lofty, cold way." However, the speaker tells us that he believes this to be typical of the man's "tribe." The reference to a tribe implies that the man is from a different culture, and therefore has a different way of dealing with strangers that corresponds to his culture. It is likely that the servant came to England from a different country looking for employment.
