Section 1
A: According to the narrator, qualities such as being endowed with excellent parts, inclined to
industry, and fond of the respect of the wise and good among fellowmen are important for
achieving success in the future. Additionally, maintaining a serious public image and
concealing one's pleasures were considered important for the narrator's aspirations.

B:Dr. Jekyll does not consider himself to be a hypocrite because both sides of his dual nature
are in dead earnest. Despite his profound duplicity of life and the discrepancy between his
public image and private actions, he is genuine and sincere in both aspects. He believes that
he is no more himself when he indulges in pleasure and shame than when he pursues
knowledge or helps others. This sincerity, coupled with the earnestness of both aspects of his
personality, leads him to conclude that he is not a hypocrite.

C: According to the passage, the two sides of intelligence are the moral and the intellectual.
The narrator describes drawing steadily nearer to the truth that man is not truly one, but truly
two, through the constant interaction and conflict between these two aspects of his
intelligence.

D: Dr. Jekyll spent most of his days engaged in scientific studies that were
directed towards the mystic and the transcendental. He delved deeply into these
studies, which shed a strong light on his consciousness of the perennial war
between his moral and intellectual sides. This pursuit of knowledge occupied
much of his time and thoughts, driving him closer to the truth of man's dual
nature.

E: In the end, Dr. Jekyll reached the realization that man is not truly one, but truly two.
Through his deep reflection and the constant war between his moral and intellectual sides, he
came to understand the duality of human nature. This realization ultimately led to his
dreadful shipwreck, as he was unable to reconcile the conflicting aspects of his being.
