I have described myself as always having been imbued with a
fervent longing to penetrate the secrets of nature.
In this line, the author is exploring man versus nature. The
word or phrase from this passage that best demonstrated the conflict between
man and nature is perhaps ‘penetrate’ or specifically ‘penetrate the secrets of
nature’.
‘Penetrate’ means to succeed in forcing a way into or
through. This signifies that the persona in this passage wants to understand
the mysteries that surround nature.
<span>Conclusions made on the basis of unstated or stated evidence are called inferences.
Those are some realizations that a person comes to based on proof which may or may not be obvious at the first glance. A reader may infer something on the basis of context or clues that can be found all over a text. The other options don't really make any sense here.

As you may know, nonverbal communication is communication
that happens without words. Nonverbal
communication can be anything from eye contact (or lack of eye contact) to
facial expressions and gestures. When
one views the speech that President Kennedy gave at Rice University, he can be
seen to frequently use his right hand to point down toward the podium or to
pound his fist into the podium. This
nonverbal communication—the gestures President Kennedy makes with his right
hand— communicates a determination and confidence that reinforces what he was
communicating in his speech that the United States was determined to go to the
moon and confident it would do so.
