The king, who delighted in music, had frequent concerts at court, to which I was sometimes carried, and set in my box on a table to hear them: but the noise was so great that I could hardly distinguish the tunes. . . . My practice was to have my box removed from the places where the performers sat, as far as I could, then to shut the doors and windows of it, and draw the window curtains, after which I found their music not disagreeable. The passage above describes an interaction between Gulliver and the king of Brobdingnag. Which excerpt indicates best that the king of Brobdingnag has not recognized the needs and feelings of Gulliver? “the noise was so great that I could hardly distinguish the tunes” “The king, who delighted in music” “frequent concerts at court, to which I was sometimes carried” “My practice was to have my box removed”
