Question

read the excerpt from lather and nothing else. i went on lathering his face. my hands began to tremble again. the man could not be aware of this, which was lucky for me. but i wished he had not come in. probably many of our men had seen him enter the shop. and with the enemy in my house i felt a certain responsibility. which statement about the barber is correct? his goal is to be a loyal revolutionary. his goal is to harm his customers. his opponents are the men outside. he feels torn between staying and running.

Explanation:

Based on the context, the barber is dealing with a customer who may be an enemy. The barber's internal struggle and sense of responsibility suggest he is committed to a cause. The idea of being a loyal revolutionary aligns with the sense of duty and the presence of an 'enemy' in his shop. There is no indication he wants to harm customers, no clear - cut mention of outside men as opponents, and no evidence of being torn between staying and running.

Answer:

His goal is to be a loyal revolutionary
