Para determinar las acciones que muestran que Scrooge está inquieto en "A Christmas Carol", analizamos cada opción:

• A. He checks each of the rooms: Revisar las habitaciones sugiere miedo o inquietud por posibles amenazas.
• B. He trims his candle as he walks: Recortar la vela mientras camina puede indicar nerviosismo al controlar su entorno.
• C. He looks under the sofa and table: Buscar debajo de muebles es un comportamiento de ansiedad, como si temiera encontrar algo.
