Select the correct text in the passage. Which phrase in this excerpt from act 1 of Eugene O'Neill's Beyond the Horizon suggests that Robert wishes to travel for adventure?
ANDREW: Oh, of course. I know you're going to learn navigation, and all about a ship, so's you can be an officer. That's natural, too. There's fair
pay in it, i expect, when you consider that you've always got a home and grub thrown in; and if you're set on traveling you can go anywhere
you're a mind to without paying fare.
ROBERT: (with a smile that is half sad) It's more than that, Andy.
ANDREW: Sure it is. There's always a chance of a good thing coming your way in some of those foreign ports or other. I've heard there are great
opportunities for a young fellow with his eyes open in some of those new countries that are just being opened up. Jovially I'll bet that's what
you've been turning over in your mind under all your quietness! (He slaps his brother on the back with a laugh) Well, if you get to be a millionaire
all of a sudden, call 'round once in a while and I'll pass the plate to you. We could use a lot of money right here on the farm without hurting it
any.
ROBERT: (forced to laugh) I've never considered that practical side of it for a minute, Andy.
ANDREW: Well, you ought to.
ROBERT: No, I oughtn't. (Pointing to the horizon-dreamily Supposing I was to tell you that it's just Beauty that's calling me, the beauty of the far
off and unknown, the mystery and spell of the East which lures me in the books I've read, the need of the freedom of great wide spaces, the joy
of wandering on and on-in quest of the secret which is hidden over there, beyond the horizon? Suppose I told you that was the one and only
reason for my going?
A to learn navigation
B are great opportunities
C that practical side
D far off and unknown
