Why did Henry David Thoreau choose to spend 2 years in a cabin?

English

Sav [38]2 years ago

The correct answer is A. to contemplate himself and the world.

Henry David Thoreau, the author of <em>Walden, </em>decided to leave society for two entire years, and spend them living in a cabin, surrounded by nature. He did this in order to find meaning, to locate his place in this world, and understand society better.

He didn't want to rely completely on nature - he believed society was still important, but he wanted to rely on nature more than on society. Earning money was never on his mind, and neither were social anxieties. What he did want to do was find a purpose in life, and see the beauty in simplicity.

Ivan

The answer is A: predict.

Multiple choice questions tend to be intricate and, in most cases, at least two of the options are either semantically or meaningfully very close, so that choosing between them is the real test —if one can choose the right answer from those two options that are so close to each other, and amongst all options in general, then the student proves he or she has grasped the sense of the question. That is why, predicting the answer can assist the student in choosing the right answer by either confirming his prediction or testing it in order to come up with the right option.
