In question 39!

Hello!
I believe your answers are A and D.
I know it is A) because in 3rd sentence in the story is says: "He was very learned in all languages, and knew a great deal about herbs and medicines."
I know it is D) because in the second line in the story it says: " This king was a leper, and all his doctors had been unable to cure him, when a very clever physician came to his court."
I hope it helps!
