Answer: A
The key says the poet looks at the lamp-lighter's profession with wonder.
He waits at the window to see Leerie go by, chooses to go round lighting lamps with him when he is grown up, and asks the lamplighter to nod to him. That shows admiring delight at the job.
Jealousy is wrong because he does not resent Leerie, and confusion is wrong because nothing in the poem puzzles him. Curiosity is the closest rival, since he watches closely, but his wish to join in goes beyond curiosity; the published key gives wonder and I could not find a source that separates the two further.
