Predicate adjective relates to subject of the sentence, and modifies it.
In A the subject is I, adjective "first" does not relate to it.
In B the subject is The teacher, "angry" is an adjective which relates to it, and modifies the subject.
In C the subject is You, adjective "hard" does not relate to it.
In D the subject is We, adjective "distant" does not relate to it.
So B is true.

Among the guests was a young lawyer, a young man of five-and-twenty. When he was asked his opinion, he said:“The death sentence and the life sentence are equally immoral, but if I had to choose between the death penalty and imprisonment for life, I would certainly choose the second. To live anyhow is better than not at all.”A lively discussion arose. The banker, who was younger and more nervous in those days, was suddenly carried away by excitement; he struck the table with his fist and shouted at the young man:“It’s not true! I'll bet you two million you wouldn’t stay in solitary confinement for five years.”“If you mean that in earnest,” said the young man, “I’ll take the bet, but I would stay not five but fifteen years.”“Fifteen? Done!” cried the banker. “Gentlemen, I stake two million!”“Agreed! You stake your millions and I stake my freedom!” said the young man.Based on this dialogue, what can you infer will happen next in the story? A.The young man will receive the death penalty for betting with the banker.B.The banker and the young man will get into a fist fight.C.The young man will enter into solitary confinement for 15 years.D.The banker will enter into solitary confinement for five years.
