Some interpretations of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein suggest that the story is an allegory that serves as a warning that it is dangerous for man to try and assume the power of creating life.
Which excerpt from the text most effectively develops this allegory?
"One secret which I alone possessed was the hope to which I had dedicated myself; and the moon gazed on my midnight labours, while, with unrelaxed and breathless eagerness, I pursued nature to her hiding-places."
“…yet when I considered the improvement which every day takes place in science and mechanics, I was encouraged to hope my present attempts would at least lay the foundations of future success.”
“…at the end of two years I made some discoveries in the improvement of some chemical instruments, which procured me great esteem and admiration at the university.”
“From this day natural philosophy, and particularly chemistry, in the most comprehensive sense of the term, became nearly my sole occupation.”

“…at the end of two years I made some discoveries in the improvement of some chemical instruments, which procured me great esteem and admiration at the university.”
Explanation:
My reasoning for this is that, he says that these discoveries brought him great esteem and admiration at the university, but this is from others. It brings nothing from him. This may show that all he did to impress people may have been a danger.
Ответ:
probably, just don't fixate and obsess over that instead of actually writing the story.
