Answer 1

Harrison's rebellion reveals that he values individuality and competition, which makes him a nonconformist in this society.

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

Harrison's rebellion reveals that he is an independent thinker who is willing to take extreme risks to alter the trajectory of his life. Harrison is also depicted as a fearless leader who is passionate about usurping power and ruling the United States as its emperor.

The main theme in "Harrison Bergeron," by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. is equality, but it is not the kind of equality which people generally desire. Vonnegut's short story is a warning that complete equality creates many problems and can even bring with it danger.
