Read this line from frankenstein: and thus for a time i was occupied by exploded systems, mingling, like an unadept, a thousand contradictory theories and floundering desperately in a very slough of multifarious knowledge, guided by an ardent imagination and childish reasoning. . an adept is one who is an expert at something. why does the author use the word unadept in this line? to show frustration to show confidence to show fear to show expertise

The correct answer is A. To  show frustration

Explanation:

The novel "Frankenstein" by the English writer Mary Shelly tells the story of the scientist Victor Frankenstein as he creates a creature as part of an experiment and the consequences this creation had. In the excerpt presented the main character Victor Frankenstein is explaining his first contact with science and the ideas that took him to create the creature during childhood and adolescence, because of this the narrator explains for some time he explored multiple contradictory theories and struggled against the amount of information and knowledge describing himself as an "unadept" during this time. This shows, during this excerpt, the narrator feels overwhelmed and frustrated as it seems he cannot find the information or knowledge he is looking for. Thus, the word unadept in the line "mingling, like an unadept, a thousand contradictory theories" which is the opposite of the word adept that means an expert or skilled, show the narrator inexperience and frustration as he trying to understand nature. Therefore, the author uses the word unadept to show frustration.

11-32. the main character in the parable, the forgiving father, whose character remains constant throughout the story, is a picture of god. in telling the story, jesus identifies himself with god in his loving attitude to the lost. the younger son symbolizes the lost (the tax collectors and sinners of that day, luke 15: 1), and the elder brother represents the self-righteous (the pharisees and teachers of the law of that day, luke 15: 2). the major theme of this parable seems not to be so much the conversion of the sinner, as in the previous two parables of luke 15, but rather the restoration of a believer into fellowship with the father. in the first two parables, the owner went out to look for what was lost (luke 15: 1-10), whereas in this story the father waits and watches eagerly for his son's return. we see a progression through the three parables from the relationship of one in a hundred (luke 15: 1-7), to one in ten (luke 15: 8-10), to one in one (luke 15: 11-32), demonstrating god’s love for each individual and his personal attentiveness towards all humanity. we see in this story the graciousness of the father overshadowing the sinfulness of the son, as it is the memory of the father’s goodness that brings the prodigal son to repentance (romans 2: 4).
