Explanation:

The phrase "he names the sky his own" is a simple statement. Literally, naming something as one's own means claiming it as belonging to oneself. Among the options, "he says the sky belongs to him" directly reflects this literal meaning. The option "he wants to own the sky" implies a desire (not a statement of ownership), and "he thinks the sky can be bought" introduces an action (buying) not present in the original phrase.

Answer:

he says the sky belongs to him
