You should first read and understand what you are trying to accomplish with the writing. Making an outline doesn't hurt either.<span />
My world before you came was black and white, No shades of gray, no varied hues to see, but then each day was wonderful and bright, because you brought the color back to me. Look at there! A sky so vast And deeply blue, green grass that gleams as brightly As jewel with golden yellow flowers peeking through, reflected in your eyes, pure crystals pools.
Correct answer: the narrator is able to justify his failures with theirs.
Explanation:
All throughout the text, the narrator is trying to justify his/her choice to give up studying natural history. The author felt like if the great minds of the time could be so easily overthrown and had been ignorant on so many topics until then, then it was worthless to pursue the study of such subjects. The narrator feels like their belittlement makes up for the choice not to pursue those studies in natural history.
