Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. Each of them was also given a metal stick, with four prongs on one end.

“Fork,” the sailor said – and showed them they should use it to eat the rice.

The fishermen recited their prayer before eating. “Itadakimasu – I will humbly receive.”

Then Goemon said, “It might be poison.”
What can readers infer based on details in the excerpt?
A. Goemon likes new experiences.
B. Goemon is not afraid of his rescuers.
C. Goemon does not trust his rescuers.
D. Goemon has used a fork before.

C. Goemon does not trust his rescuers.

Explanation:

We see in the passage that fishermen prepare to eat and that sailor explains to them how to use the fork. However, the passage quotes Goemon that warily states the food might be poisonous.

This can tell us that Goemon does not trust sailors and he thinks that they might have poisoned the food in order to kill them. He is suspicious and afraid of these people and warns his fellow about the possible danger and his doubts.
