The theme of the novel that this excerpt best addresses is the self-destructive nature of obsession. The narrator uses the White Whale as a symbol for every obsession that drives a man forward while, at the same time, it destroys him from within. This destruction is apparent in the fact that this man is living with "half a heart and half a lung" because the obsession has eaten the rest.

___ is the process of gathering objective information.
Tamiku [17]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Because the word inference means "a conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning." This means that when the question asks the process of gathering objective information you would make inferences. Summarizing is when you give/tell the overall idea or the point of a text someone/something. Making observations is almost the same so if this is wrong it is probably D.
