Question

read the passage.
excerpt from the \conclusion\ section of
walden by henry david thoreau
1 i left the woods for as good a reason as i
went there. perhaps it seemed to me that i
had several more lives to live, and could
not spare any more time for that one. it is
remarkable how easily and insensibly we
fall into a particular route, and make a
beaten track for ourselves. i had not lived
there a week before my feet wore a path
from my door to the pond - side, and though
it is five or six years since i trod it, it is still
quite distinct. it is true, i fear, that others
may have fallen into it, and so helped to
which detail from the text best supports this
inference?
\however mean your life is, meet it and
live it; do not shun it and call it hard
names.\
\sell your clothes and keep your
thoughts.\
\the setting sun is reflected from the
windows of the almshouse as brightly
as from the rich mans abode; ...\
\the fault - finder will find faults even in
paradise.\

Explanation:

To determine the detail supporting the inference (likely about equality or non - judgment of living conditions), we analyze each option:

• The option "However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names." is about facing one's life.
• "Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts." is about material and mental aspects.
• "The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; …" shows that the sun (a symbol of a common, equal element) shines equally on the poor (almshouse) and rich, supporting an inference about equality in life's basic experiences.
• "The fault - finder will find faults even in paradise." is about fault - finding.

Answer:

The option: "The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the almshouse as brightly as from the rich man’s abode; …"
