Answer:
This paragraph reveals the following perception by Voltaire concerning Helvetius's writing:
D. It is unique but sometimes pretentious and showy.
Explanation:
It is sentence number 2 that shows how Voltaire appreciates the uniqueness in Helvetius's writing. Notice that Voltaire says he possesses a "fearless genius," and that his "work sparkles with imagination." There is something special, thus, about his writing, something Voltaire admires. However, sentence 4 reveals there is also something to be criticized. It is Voltaire's opinion that Helvetius's writing can be showy and pretentious. He advises him not to "fall into the grandiose." Keeping it simple, using the "right word" and "true similes" is, to Voltaire's mind, better.

True, you do have to deal with life even if it's not fair. You just gotta roll with it so that you'll end up coming out better than you were before. Life throws all kinds of obstacles at you, and you just have to take it on.

Sentence No 1. "The low note was a grunting, a rumble, the deep discordant growling of an ill-conditioned dog."
Assuming that nobody would want to be compared to an ill-conditioned dog, this sentence expresses mockery. The term "discordant" itself means inharmonious and off-key. Good music is universally known to be harmonious and pleasing to the ears.
Sentence No. 2 "Then suddenly the singer threw up his face, straightened his tubby figure, rose upon his tiptoes, and with a wagging head and scarlet cheeks emitted such a howl as the same dog might have given had his growl been checked by a kick from his master."
The first part of the sentence doesn't express too much mockery, just a frank description, but the second part of the sentence starting from "emitted such a howl" expresses mockery. In this description, the subject's voice is being compared to a pained animal. "A kick from his master" is known to be a universal punishment for dogs (unless the dog enjoys being kicked which is very, very, unlikely). Unless the goal of the subject is to sound like a punished animal, this is not a compliment. A good voice is pleasing to the ear while a howl, consequence of pain, will be loud, shrill, and abrupt.
Sentence No. 3 "Many a singer far better than this absurd fop had been driven amid execration and abuse from the platform."
The narrator in this sentence is being quite straightforward about his opinion on the subject by declaring him an "absurd fop". Absurd means unusual or inappropriate, so if something is called "absurd" it's in a negative way.
Hope this helps!
Explanation:
Like most truly suspenseful and horrifying moment, whether in theatre, film, or television, what an audience imagines is far more gruesome than anything that they can actually watch. This makes the blinding far more effective offstage.
In addition, as all classical Greek plays were performed with masks, this made it possible for the actor to come back with a different mask to show the change and thus create a visual cue for the audience.
