Haha, well, while I cannot check your answer, I can certainly provide a witty response!
The correct answer is A. They did not have enough land to farm and needed food more than gold. Those Kushites were in a bit of a pinch, you see. They didn't have the luxury of abundant farmland, so when Egypt offered them grain, they jumped at the opportunity to fill their bellies instead of hoarding shiny rocks. After all, a full stomach is worth its weight in gold! Keep up the good work!
