Read these lines: "The Law of the Jungle says that if there is a doubt which is not a killing matter in regard to a new cub, the life of that cub may be bought at a price. And the Law does not say who may or may not pay that price. Am I right?" Why does the speaker stress the second sentence?

1. 1. The first sentence establishes that a price can save the cub. 2. 2. The second sentence points to a silence in the Law rather than to a rule in it. 3. 3. What the Law does not say is who may pay, and the speaker is not a member of the pack. 4. 4. That silence is exactly what allows him to pay, which is why he stresses it and then asks whether he is right. 5. 5. Option A adds a fixed price the Law never sets. 6. 6. Option B reverses the first sentence, which allows a price to be taken. _Source: The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling (1894)_
