- My first voyage had been very profitable. I was again a (1)______ man. I did not lack for luxury or entertainment. This implies the subject was once lacking but through his voyage, he regained wealth.
- (2)______, my friend, I could not rest for long. Here, a conjunctive adverb should be used to relate the two ideas effectively.
- I (3)______ the salt air and the thrill of travel and adventure. The subject implies an enduring urge for adventure.
- Soon I (4)______ by the will of Allah back to the seaport at Basra. The sentence suggests the subject was influenced or compelled by a force.
- Option 1: am pulled - This implies being currently influenced, not suitable for past narrative.
- Option 2: was pulling - Suggests the subject was actively drawing something, doesn’t fit the context.
- Option 3: was pulled - Implies a passive action where the subject is drawn by an external force, matching the narrative.
- Option 4: had pulled - Suggests the subject had actively drawn something before another action, not fitting here.
- (5)______ I found a newly-made ship with fine sails and the best equipment. The context of finding fits with a location.
