The excerpt of this question is missing; here is the missing excerpt:
Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Travels of Marco Polo and study the map.
[This] is an island lying about 1,000 miles south of Socotra. The people are Saracens who worship Mahomet. They have four sheikhs—that is to say, four elders—who exercise authority over the whole island. You must know that this island is one of the biggest and best in the whole world. It is said to measure about 4,000 miles in circumference. The people live by trade and industry. More elephants are bred here than in any other province; and I assure you that not so many elephant tusks are sold in all the rest of the world put together as in this island and that of Zanzibar.
The correct answer to this question is C. Madagascar
Explanation:
In the excerpt, the narrator refers to an island located "about 1,000 miles south of Socotra". About the island, the narrator describes some geographical features of it, as well as, features of its people. This includes the detail "More elephants are bred here than in any other province" that shows the number of elephants bred in this island is higher than in any other region.
Now, on the map, it can be deduced the island the author describes is Madagascar (Location C) because this is the only island located to the South of Socotra (Location A), which coincides with the description in the excerpt.

Answer:
Who is the real monster in Frankenstein?
Victor Frankenstein is the real monster. In 1972, Gaylin lamented that "the tragic irony is not that Mary Shelley's 'fantasy' once again has a relevance. The tragedy is that it is no longer a 'fantasy'—and that in its realization we no longer identify with Dr. Frankenstein but with his monster.".
Explanation:
The true name of the monster was never revealed, instead many gave it the last name of his creator, Victor Frankenstein. Although perhaps that was society’s intent while repurposing this story, to refer to the real monster himself, Mr. Victor Frankenstein; the man who created and abandoned a creature that was capable of destruction. Shelley did not give the hideous creature a name, perhaps for a reason. To not name something dehumanizes it and makes that thing an It – lack of identify due to no name fear of unknown. Yet she gives it such human characteristics by allowing the beast to talk, read, learn another language and even have the capabilities of emotions. Connect better, Sometimes the real monster is not the hideous beast standing in front of you, but rather the beast looking back at you in the mirror. Marry Shelley related Frankenstein’s creation as the product of neglect and lack of responsibility by the creator, a situation all too relevant to today’s society, specify that Mary Shelley wrote the book.
The monster did not choose to be created, he did not choose to look the way that he did, he did not choose to be rejected by everyone around him. As he tells Victor when he approached him in the Alps, “I am malicious because I am miserable.” emphasize what the deeper reasoning is. analyze. There is no moral excuse for the monster’s killing spree, but there may have been a deeper reasoning for Shelley having the monster express this to his creator and possess such strong emotions. When the beast was created, he was brought to the world and left to interact with no one but himself. He discusses with Victor how hard it was for him to even walk around because people would scream in fear at his appearance; Even his own creator left him. clarify that i think the monster is a monster because of doctor, there are two monsters.
