In the poem The blind men and the Elephant it asks which of the following best summarizes the central theme of the text? A. In order to understand something entirely, it must be viewed from different perspectives.
B. Learning is not a noble pursuit if it only leads to controversy and debate.
C. Comedy can teach people how to see themselves clearly
D. Nature is designed to confuse and frighten mankind.
I personally chose A.
The question I have is about question 2
Which of the following nest supports the answer to question 1?
A. "It was six men of Indostan/ To learning much inclined" (lines 1-2)
B. "Who went to see the elephant/ Though all of them were blind."
C. And so these men of indostan/ Disputed loud and long, / Each in his own opinion/ Exceeding stiff and strong." (Lines 43-46)
I am confused whether it is c. or d.
