b. both are evading the law: victor is guilty of murder, and walton is guilty of theft.

c. both are hoping to find love: victor loves elizabeth, and walton loves margaret.

d. both are seeking fame by pushing the limits: victor with science and walton with exploration.

Explanation:

• Option A: Walton isn't seeking the yeti; this is incorrect.
• Option B: Victor isn't guilty of murder (the monster kills), and Walton isn't guilty of theft; this is wrong.
• Option C: Walton's exploration isn't about finding love; this misrepresents his motive.
• Option D: Victor pushes scientific limits to create life (seeking fame through achievement), and Walton pushes exploration limits (seeking fame via discovery). This matches their stories.

Answer:

D. Both are seeking fame by pushing the limits: Victor with science and Walton with exploration.
