Read the original excerpt: The narrator describes the rebel pamphlet as a match struck in a cellar. Yet the people who read it use the flame to warm their hands rather than light the barricade. What conclusion best accounts for this image?
A
The image proves the pamphlet is not political at all.
B
The failure to light the barricade shows the people are cowardly, which is the passage's only point.
C
The readers' hands are irrelevant because the match metaphor belongs only to the pamphlet.
D
The pamphlet carries revolutionary potential, but the readers' use of warmth suggests a more immediate need for comfort than uprising.
