Answer: C) Gregor’s sudden and inexplicable transformation into a bug.

Explanation: The definition of absurd is utterly or obviously senseless, illogical, or untrue; contrary to all reason or common sense. The use of absurdity in literature is a vehicle for writers to explore those elements in the world that do not make sense. In "The Metamorphosis" we can see an example of the absurd in the fact that Gregor transform into a bug in a sudden and inexplicable way.

Answer:

C). Gregor’s sudden and inexplicable transformation into a bug.

Explanation:

In literature, the "absurd" represents actions that seem lacking in meaning or truth, and that a reader might find inexplicable. This is a concept that is prevalent in Kafka's work. Absurd literature, moreover, can seem to lack congruence or "sense." It also explores existencialist or nihilist subjects. In this case, one example of the absurd in The Metamorphosis is the fact that Gregor suddenly and inexplicably transforms into a bug.

Hatshy [7]

How has bud's ability to cope with a new environment changed since spending the night in amoses shed?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Bud's ability has changed for the better, contributing greatly to his courage to go looking for his father.

Explanation:

When Bud went to live with the Amoses, he was very afraid to impose himself, to defend himself and to be faithful to his own wishes. In this case, he behaved with great passivity, which contributed to the Amoses being extremely abusive towards him and promoting a completely inhospitable and unpleasant environment. This allowed Bud to understand, that acting the way others wanted did not protect him from anything, but left him in a disadvantageous position and so he decided to impose himself, take courage and face everything that tried to destabilize him.
