Read the passage.
excerpt from the “Conclusion” section of Walden by Henry David Thoreau

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 keep it open. The surface of the earth is soft and impressible by the feet of men; and so with the paths which the mind travels. How worn and dusty, then, must be the highways of the world, how deep the ruts of tradition and conformity! I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now.

After reading paragraphs 2-4, readers can infer that Thoreau believes people should make their own way in life rather than try to be like others.

Which detail from the text best supports this inference?

C) "Shall we with pains erect a heaven of blue glass over ourselves, though when it is done we shall be sure to gaze still at the true ethereal heaven far above, as if the former were not?"

D) "If the condition of things which we were made for is not yet, what were any reality which we can substitute?"

I learned this, at least, by my experiment that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."

Who is Henry  David Thoreau?

Between states, governments, societies, or paramilitary groups like mercenaries, insurgents, and militias, there is an intense armed confrontation known as war. 

Extreme violence, damage, and fatality, whether caused by conventional or irregular military forces, are typically its defining characteristics. The term "warfare" describes the typical actions and traits of particular war types or of wars in general.

Total war is defined as warfare that extends beyond solely military objectives and is capable of causing significant suffering and casualties among civilians and other non-combatants.

Therefore, I learned this, at least, by my experiment that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."

Answer:
