Question

which best describes a theme of \a man said to the universe\?
individuals should accept their circumstances.
the universe is indifferent to human concerns.
societal forces play a major role in forming an individual.
science is more powerful than human behavior.

Explanation:

In the poem "A Man Said to the Universe", the man asserts his existence to the universe. The universe's response, "However, the fact has not created in me a sense of obligation", shows that the universe does not care about human concerns like human existence. The other options are not supported by the poem's content. The poem is not about individuals accepting circumstances (no such message), societal forces forming an individual (not the focus), or science vs human behavior (not mentioned).

Answer:

The universe is indifferent to human concerns.
