How are George and hazel realted to Harrison

English
1 answer:
Basile [38]2 years ago
6 0

In the short story "Harrison Bergeron," George and Hazel are Harrison's parents, and they live in a world that imposes equality through the use of handicaps.

<h3>What happens in the story?</h3>

In Kurt Vonnegut's short story "Harrison Bergeron," George and Hazel are Harrison's parents. They live in a futuristic world where the government tries to enforce equality by making people wear handicaps. No one is allowed to be more intelligent or beautiful, for example, than another person.

George wears a handicap to prevent him from being too intelligent. Hazel, on the other hand, is completely average, so she wears no handicaps whatsoever. Harrison wears several, since he is handsome, smart, and strong. He ends up in prison for removing them, but he escapes.

Harrison appears on TV and removes his handicaps once again. He ends up being killed by the government while his mother watches. However, since she is not smart enough to understand what just happened, she cannot even tell his father that their son has died.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.

Why men are against of shifts in gender roles??
miskamm [114]
Some (not all) men are against shifting gender roles because, historically and presently the nature of gender roles typically put males at a societal advantage. So the concept of having shifts in these gender roles, means that many males are often nervous that they will lose the stability in the systematic designation of societal standing due to gender, that was always designed to favour them. Although these fears are irrational, as most of the modern movements in relation to gender roles are in favour of freedom of the individual, and not intended to put any group or person at a disadvantage.

She turned left, he steered right, and I kept going straight ahead. What is or are the independent clauses?
seropon [69]

Answer:

All three clauses in the sentence are independent clauses:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that can convey a complete thought on its own, being able to stand alone as a sentence. In other words, when you read an independent clause alone, it makes perfect sense.

In the sentence we are analyzing here, three independent clauses were put together, combined with a comma between the firs two, and a comma plus the coordinating conjunction "and" between the final two.

"She turned left, he steered right, and I kept going straight ahead."

If we separate each clause, they will still make perfect sense alone:

1. She turned left

2. he steered right

3. and I kept going straight ahead
