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

English
1 answer:
Sav [38]3 years ago
4 0

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.

What is the summary of Summer of the Mariposas Chapter16?
Brut [27]

Answer:

Before the Garza sisters leave Hacienda Dorada for home, Abuelita Remedios gives Odilia some seeds, saying, “from my garden to yours” (344). The group travels through Monclova, and Odilia notes how beautiful it is. Just as the girls are about to part from their grandmother, they realize they have not brought their papers with them and therefore cannot cross the border legally. The girls worry that if they go to the police, then Child Protective Services will get involved.
