Read the passage from “Edgar Allan Poe.”
“In speaking of my mother you have touched a string to which my heart fully responds. To have known her is to be an object of great interest in my eyes. I myself never knew her—and never knew the affection of a father. Both died (as you may remember) within a few weeks of each other. I have many occasional dealings with Adversity—but the want of parental affection has been the heaviest of my trials.”
In this passage, the author quotes Poe to define
A. a cause of his dark themes.
B. an effect of his dark themes.
C. the central idea of his dark themes.
D. the relationships in his dark themes.

Ответ:
I think the answer would be a- a cause of his dark times
Explanation:
I chose this answer because a cause is something that leads to an outcome. In this case, the death of Poe's parents may have been a cause to his dark themes. This is supported when he says "...you have touched a string to which my heart fully responds" and "I have many occasional dealings with Adversity- but the want of parental affection has been the heaviest of my trials"
Let me know if this raises any other questions, I'll try my best to answer them :)
