The one who walks away from omelas summary

English

One child is chosen from the population to serve as a sacrifice that will allow the rest of the city to live in peace and plenty. The child is placed in a small, windowless room without any amenities and is completely cut off from the rest of society except for the short visits from those who come to view the child. When they learn of the child’s existence, the people of Omelas battle with the knowledge of The child, who suffers for them, and the guilt they feel as a result of their knowledge. However, most of them eventually overcome their guilt. They live fully, celebrate life, and work to achieve beauty and greatness in an effort to justify the sacrifice of The child. They are no longer capable of true happiness after they learn about The child, but they are capable of contentment. There are some people who leave the city. Some leave when they first learn of the child’s existence and some leave after a long battle with their guilt. But they all leave on solitary journeys as they make their way through the city and the surrounding fields and out into the unknown. These people disappear and never return. Their fate and their paths are unknown

Reflect on this school year.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

I feel like this school year was challenging for me since I'm enrolled in an online program and it was sometimes frustrating being taught by a lifeless screen with barely any access to my friends at school. I'm pretty everyone has their personal problems but I think most of us can agree the limitations of school social experience can be disappointing.

Select the correct text in the passage.
zvonat [6]

The two excerpts that best reflect Gregor's isolated condition after his transformation are:

1. He got into the habit of closely watching it for one or two hours before it was opened and then, lying in the darkness of his room where he could not be seen from the living room, he could watch the family in the light of the dinner table and listen to their conversation—with everyone's permission, in a way, and thus quite differently from before.

2. Gregor never responded to being spoken to in that way, but just remained where he was without moving as if the door had never even been opened. If only they had told this charwoman to clean up his room every day instead of letting her disturb him for no reason whenever she felt like it!

The excerpts are taken from 'The Metamorphosis' by Franz Kafka. The above two excerpts reflect how Gregor's isolated condition was after he transformed.

For instance, he used to spend time in his dark room, watching things for hours without him being watched by anyone else. Also, he never liked communicating with any of his family members.
