How does the author perceive success?

  • A.Success is a result of exemplary hard work.
  • B.Success is an amalgamation of hard-work and sheer luck.
  • C.Success is a result of hidden advantages and cultural benefits along with the hard work one puts in.
  • D.Success depends on culture of a person's region.

Answer: C

The author sees success as a result of hidden advantages and cultural benefits along with the hard work that a person puts in. The passage says hard work is given extraordinary importance, but that we fail to notice hidden advantages and cultural legacies, and the example of the tallest oak shows that circumstances matter along with the acorn. Option A gives only hard work, option B adds luck, which the author does not use, and option D limits it to the region, which is too narrow.
