The reason Why Cyril made drawings of athletes was that

  • A.though he admired them, he lacked a fine physique himself
  • B.he loved violent exercises
  • C.athletics was a passion with him
  • D.he had to complete an assignment

Answer: A

Correct answer: though he admired them, he lacked a fine physique himself

The passage gives the reason directly: it was his envy of those physically unlike himself that brought on the phase of drawing thick-necked athletes, and it ends again he was pitying himself for what he could never be. Envy and self-pity are admiration turned inward, not a love of exercise.
