Question

question 2 points 2
what can be inferred from the words
eprobates to weariness\ in the following statement from the essay \society and solitude\ by ralph waldo emerson?
\who reprobates to weariness the danger and vice of pure intellect.\

express comfort and solace

express disapproval in a tiring fashion

provide an interest

offer intellectual help

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the phrase "reprobates to weariness". "Reprobate" means to express disapproval, and "to weariness" implies doing so in a tiring way. Let's evaluate each option:

• "Express comfort and solace" is incorrect as "reprobate" is negative, not comforting.
• "Express disapproval in a tiring fashion" matches: "reprobate" is disapproval, "to weariness" means tiringly.
• "Provide an interest" is unrelated to the meaning of "reprobate".
• "Offer intellectual help" is also unrelated to disapproval.

Answer:

B. Express disapproval in a tiring fashion
