Which two sentences or phrases best develop the themes of the passage?
He felt a slight itch up on his belly; pushed himself slowly up on his back towards the headboard so that he could lift his head better;
"these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts. I ought to just try that with my boss . . . ."
"Oh, goodness," he thought, "what a strenuous career it is that I've chosen! Traveling day in and day out."
He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn't have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain . . . .
but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn't get into that position.
