Thoreau meant B) No shanty comes close to as poor as mine.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Henry David Thoreau was a famous American poet and philosopher. He is best known for his book Walden. Not only essayist, he was also an advocate of civil liberties.

David Thoreau is a transcendentalist. He doesn’t have any religious beliefs but understands life relationships.  According to Thoreau, life becomes easy if the demands are less. He believes that one’s demand for unwanted things causes stress in life.  

The phrase “this is a dozen times as poor” used by Thoreau meant No shanty comes close to as poor as mine.

a_sh-v [17]
<span>The correct answer is - nicotine can temporarily increase norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter scarce in people with depression.
Before Nathaniel started smoking, he was severely depressed, which is in part a biological thing (not only mental) due to his lack of norepinephrine. However, when he started smoking, his levels of this neurotransmitter rose, which is why he didn't feel as depressed as he used to be, but in turn, he became addicted to nicotine. </span>
