Victor Frankenstein, who is the narrator, tells the reader through Robert Walton's accounts, about his interests in knowledge and science. In the sentence that begins with " In this mood...", Victor has just changed his mind about his ideas about science. He was influenced by alchemists who thought that natural history was a " deformed and abortive creation". This was before Victor entered university. Therefore, his views of knowledge and science change when he meets professors at university. Here, he learns about galvanism, the activation of muscles with electricity, from a " a man of great research in natural philosophy..". Victor has learnt the difference between magic and rational explanations of nature. This is the reason why he has made the decision to study mathematics. It is built upon secure not speculative foundations.

What is the tense of the underlined verb in the sentence?
A. picnic, however
B. picnic, however,
C. picnic; however,
D. picnic; however
I would say C picnic; however,
The reason why C is the right choice is because when you have two complete sentences that has a connector word like however you are supposed to have a semicolon before the connector word and then a comma that follows the connector word. That is the easiest way to explain the complicated rule. Good luck.
A.
superlative
B.
positive
C.
comparative
