Yes that is absolutely proper grammar
Answer:
The correct answer is B. “They fight over who has the right to go first and Oedipus kills Laius in self defense, unwittingly fulfilling part of the prophecy.” (Paragraph 6)
Explanation:
Part A deals with the central theme of the myth of Oedipus, which is <em>fate and free will. </em>Since Oedipus was destined to kill his father and marry his mother, he tried to run away from it and even beforehand, his real father, Laius, tried to prevent this from happening. However, since this was their fate, their free will didn't really exist and they were destined to meet this fate.
The quote that supports this theme is definitely option B as it talks about the prophecy and fate which cannot be avoided.
Tedious means repetitive, tiresome, boring, brain-numbing.
In my opinion, it is true because McCandless got ready for the trip by packing elementary things, opposed to the things we pack nowadays where technology absorbs much of our attention and time.
Through this quote, the author implies that today's society has limited our sense of freedom and adventure due to the increased use of technological devices which have become the new way to enjoy and be encased in a virtual world at the same time. In the past, children enjoyed more freedom and used to engage in more fun and adventurous games, rather than virtual ones as it happens at present time.
