Question 117

Contemplating whether to exist with an insatiable romantic temperament, he was the author and largely the subject of a number of memorable novels.

Solution

Contemplate means think about. The dependent clause "Thinking to exist with a romantic temperament" does not relate to the independent clause.

Option D is wrong as using it with the independent clause is grammatically incorrect.

Realistic details and romantic temperament is a better combination than brilliant mind and romantic temperament in the given context.

Hence, option B is the answer.
