Which excerpt from Frankenstein most clearly portrays nature as cruel?

O A. When I awoke | found that the sun had already mounted
considerably. The wind was high, and the waves continually
threatened the safety of my little skiff. I found that the wind was
northeast and must have driven me far from the coast from which
I had embarked.
B.
The storm appeared to approach rapidly.. .. It advanced; the
heavens were clouded, and I soon felt the rain coming slowly in
large drops, but its violence quickly increased....
The darkness and storm increased every minute, and the
thunder burst with a terrific crash over my head. ... Vivid flashes
of lightning dazzled my eyes, illuminating the lake, making it
appear like a vast sheet of fire.

C. "Cursed be the day, abhorred devil, in which you first saw light!
Cursed (although I
curse myself) be the hands that formed you!
You have made me wretched beyond expression.*
• D. As the day was fair, and the wind favorable, we resolved to go by
water. . ..
We passed rapidly along: the sun was hot, but we were
sheltered from its rays by a kind of canopy, while we enjoyed the
beautv of the scene.

Answer:

B.

The storm appeared to approach rapidly.. .. It advanced; the

heavens were clouded, and I soon felt the rain coming slowly in

large drops, but its violence quickly increased....

The darkness and storm increased every minute, and the

thunder burst with a terrific crash over my head. ... Vivid flashes

of lightning dazzled my eyes, illuminating the lake, making it

appear like a vast sheet of fire.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think so because this part explains how cruel the nature had treated the narrator, on account of a storm.
