Excerpted from The First Men in the Moon by H. G. Wells He had his watch out as I came up to him. He had a chubby, rubicund face with reddish brown eyes—previously I had seen him only against the light. “One moment, sir,” said I as he turned. He stared. “One moment,” he said, “certainly. Or if you wish to speak to me for longer, and it is not asking too much —your moment is up—would it trouble you to accompany me?”
“Not in the least,” said I, placing myself beside him.
“My habits are regular. My time for intercourse—limited.”
“This, I presume, is your time for exercise?”
“It is. I come here to enjoy the sunset.”
“You don’t.”
“Sir?”
“You never look at it.”
“Never look at it?”
“No, I’ve watched you thirteen nights, and not once have you looked at the sunset—not once.”

Explanation:

My first impression of Mr. Cavor is that he's a busy man. Of course in this passage, Mr. Cavor has already stated that his time for interaction is limited, but there are also other clues in the text that lead me to believe that. Before Mr. Bedford starts talking to Mr. Cavor the audience can already see that he's eyeing his watch. He also seems to be a very timid man, with him stuttering in a lot of his sentences. It could be that he's a bit nervous talking to Mr. Bedford, or maybe he has somewhere to be. Now Mr. Bedford on the other hand seems to be more of the attentive type. He states that he's been watching Mr. Cavor for thirteen days, which to me seems to be a little bit obsessive, but it could be possible that he just admires and appreciates Mr. Cavor deeply.

a-he encouraged islamic schools to introduce greek texts.

d-he invited greek scholars to teach their texts to the locals.
