a
by stating the point of view of the antagonist, moore presents the complexity of the issue
by using the word \quickly\ moore predicts that with good conditions they though weakened

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

1. Option 1: "By starting with the phrase 'It is to be hoped' which draws attention to future possibilities" – The phrase "It is to be hoped" expresses a desire for the future (that Henry will lose hunger's quality), so it connects to future possibilities Henry’s character might have (like overcoming hunger - related issues, developing positively).

1. Option 2: "By stating the point of view of the author, Moore, to stress the complexity of the issue" – The sentence is about Henry’s future, not the author stressing issue complexity.

1. Option 3: "By using the word 'quality' to show problems that rich and ambitious Henry might encounter" – The word "quality" here refers to a trait of hunger, not problems Henry (rich/ambitious) would face.

The phrase "It is to be hoped" implies a future - oriented wish (Henry losing hunger's quality). This connects to possible future developments in Henry's character (like growth or change related to hunger). Other options misinterpret the sentence's purpose: Option 2 misfocuses on the author's view and complexity, Option 3 misinterprets "quality"’s relation to Henry’s problems.

By starting with the phrase "It is to be hoped" which draws attention to future possibilities
