Which excerpt from “the telephone: a truer tale” best supports the purpose of the text?

after all, it has a terrific happy ending in which the hero, alexander graham bell, uses his astonishing new device to transmit the words “mr. watson, come here. i want to see you.”
meucci would not allow himself to become discouraged, however. instead, he returned to his lab determined to make his talking machine even better. he worked for many more years and did just that.
in 1871, meucci still lacked investors and was unable to pay the $250 patent fee, so he filed a patent caveat instead. a patent caveat cost only $10 and would not allow anyone else to patent the same idea for one full year.
on june 11, 2002, one hundred and twenty-six years after bell’s patent was issued, the united states house of representatives passed a resolution recognizing antonio meucci as the true inventor of the telephone.

Which sentence best describes the biased way the author approaches this topic? boars = bacon. and gammon, chops, sausages and feel your salivary glands begin to tingle at the thought of your teeth sinking into that first tender mouthful, and you will be half way towards a sensible attitude towards these creatures. they’re pigs. porkers, hogs, swine, if you will. they dig up people’s gardens, occasionally attack their dogs, spread disease and generally cause a nuisance. in culinary terms, they’re no different to cows or sheep or any of the other feeble-minded, four-legged frolickers which, in various pasties, pies and other assorted pastry cases, end up on our steaming plates on a daily basis. low in fat but high in deliciousness, by eating a wild boar you aren’t depriving poor little peppa and george of a long-lost cousin, but rather reaffirming your god-given position at the top of the food chain. if a boar could eat you it would, thus i say we should return the favour with interest. so say no to the misty-eyed squealers and man up, tuck in and pig out!
