Which set of aliens do you think you would believe—the first set,”The wretched,” or the second set,” The Beautiful ?”Explain why
suter [353]

Answer:

I would probably believe the first set of aliens, "the wretched".

Explanation:

"The Wretched and the Beautiful", by E. Lily Yu uses aliens as a metaphor for the way we, as a society, view and treat refugees. In the story, the first set of extraterrestrials to arrive on a beach are received with violence. They have a disgusting appearance, which makes humans quick to judge and attack them, even though they are asking for refuge.

A second group, but of beautiful aliens, arrives and convinces the humans that the first group consists of criminals. The humans believe them and are more than relieved when they realize they are not the ones who will have deal with those first aliens.

<u>Even though I do understand why humanity in general would be tempted to believe the second group, I think would believe the first one. I know that we tend to fear what is different. Our primitive brains are wired to identify those who do not belong to our group or tribe as the enemy. Therefore, what is different is usually perceived as dangerous. However, precisely because I have that knowledge, I would try to break that pattern and put myself in those aliens' "shoes". I would imagine what it felt like to ask for help only to be treated as a threat and be attacked instead.</u>

It builds suspense in the story, as each of Mitty's fantasies places him in more and more danger in reality.

It injects tension in the story, as readers wait to see whether Mitty's wife will realize that her husband is unhappy.

It adds humor to the story, since Mitty acts out all of his fantasies among people who have no idea what he's doing.

Answer:

It creates sympathy for Mitty since readers recognize that his fantasies show how he'd like to be, not how he actually is.

Explanation:

"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" that tells the story of Mitty, who is a man who disconnects himself from the reality in which he lives, constantly, and finds himself trapped in heroic daydreams totally outside the reality in which he is inserted. Although this is not valued by the characters in the book, it does create an empathy between the bed and Mitty. This is because the reader understands that Mitty's daydreams are a reflection of his dissatisfaction with the real world, thus, the daydreams he presents, are a vision of what he wanted to be.
