Hi!
The correct options would be Direct Quotations and Paraphrasing.
Textual evidence refers to those lines or statements that substantiate a claim. In our case, while analyzing a literary piece, we can incorporate direct quotations, or paraphrase particular lines from the essay that support our argument or opinion.
Direct quotations are lines cited unaltered directly from the essay, and are incorporated between quotation marks. This is the most effective form of textual evidence.
Paraphrasing entails that the same idea, fact or message conveyed by the author in the essay are mentioned in the analysis in one's own words.
The thesis statement is clearly defines the topic of the analysis and all the textual evidence must be presented in a way to support it. It, itself, cannot be textual evidence.
The summary of the plot would be the brief account of the essay, and may not necessarily be as effective in proving a claim, and does not qualify as effective textual evidence when analyzing a literary essay.
Similarly the biography of the author may or may not relate to the literary essay, and is hardly used as textual evidence.
Hope this helps.

1. In my opinion, the correct answer is D. <span>- It is impossible to make people totally identical in every way. Vonnegut's dystopic short story is set in the future, when equality is not interpreted as a fact that people should be equal in their rights and by law. It is understood as the fact that they must be identical to each other as much as possible so that nobody would feel inferior to anyone else, and that competition between people should be impossible.
2. I would say the correct option is A. </span><span>- The heaviest of handicaps cannot mask Harrison’s superiority: he “had outgrown hindrances faster than H-G men could think them up”. Harrison is, in a way, a symbol of human nature that cannot be suppressed in growth and potential, no matter how hard the society tries to impose restrictions and rules upon it. He is both a genius and a good-looking man, and has rebellious nature that directly defies the system. That's why the H-G has to kill him.</span>
