Answer:
B. He doesn't think very highly of his writing ability.
Explanation:
In the given quote Hemingway refers to the most of his life work as to something rather average, with a little bit of good writings - which he says are there because of luck. Considering how great and famous writer he was and is, we can see that this quote is pure underestimating his own talent and being humble. So B is the correct answer.
In this quote we do no find anything that matches answer A. Answer C is totally opposite of what is said in the quote, egoistic so to say. Answer D does not refer to this quote it is not about what public thinks of him, but what he thinks of himself.
Even though synonyms generally share the same meaning, they might not apply in the same context. So, if you want to use one specific word you should do that instead of trying to find a synonym that doesn't quite fit into the context you've established. An example is if you want to use the sentence "I was mad", meaning "I was angry", you could look for a synonym. One synonym is "absurd". However, this is a different type of mad, meaning crazy instead of meaning angry. "I was absurd" has an entirely different meaning than originally intended. This is why you should always double check the contextual meaning of the synonym you want to use.
