Answers
Answer:
Professor Aronnax is an intelligent scientist in Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, but he is also a raging know-it-all and judgmental. He is also the narrator of the story, which allows for own personal biases to impact the way the story is told.
Aronnax ends up on Captain Nemo's submarine, the Nautilus, because he originally thought it was a giant narwhal or monster in the sea. Obviously, when he comes upon the 'monster,' he realizes it is a submarine, but it's too late because Nemo takes him and two others captive. This lesson talks about Professor Aronnax's character through a critical analysis of quotes that portray his character traits and development throughout the story.

It's Not Possible
For a man who knows everything, it's pretty amazing to see how he behaves when he comes upon something new. As readers, we first catch a glimpse of Professor Aronnax's behavior when he sees Nautilus, Nemo's submarine, for the first time. He can't believe Captain Nemo had the ''mechanical force'' to build such an advanced ship. Since he himself couldn't have ever imagined such a ship, he finds it ''improbable'' for any other person to come up with the invention.
