Read these sentences from the text. Scrooge had a very small fire, but the clerk's fire was so very much smaller that it looked like one coal. But he couldn't replenish it, for Scrooge kept the coal-box in his own room; and so surely as the clerk came in with the shovel, the master predicted that it would be necessary for them to part.

What conclusion can you draw based on this information?
The reason that the clerk’s fire and Scrooge’s fire were both so small is that there was no coal.
Scrooge did not allow his clerk to have enough coal in his fire to keep warm.
The only reason the clerk did not have enough coal is because he didn’t want to go get it.
Scrooge offered the clerk more coal but the clerk did not take it because he was scared.
