Explanation:

"Frankenstein" is a Gothic novel written by Mary Shelley. The novel is about Victor Frankenstein and the creature he created in his laboratory.

In chapter 15, of the novel, when the monster decided to approach De Lacey, a blind man, to convince him of his gentle nature he was drived out by Felix when they returned to the cottage.

Felix was afraid of the horrific appearance of the monster thus driving him out of the cottage. This rejection of him by De Lacey, furthers his anger towards mankind, especially his creator, Victor. After being rejected by De Lacey family, the monster vowed to revenge his creator, and he became bitter towards mankind.

Thus the correct answer is option D.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
