The Appalachian Trail consists of 2,168 miles of
breathtakingly beautiful country. It extends from the top of Mt.
Katahdin in Main to the top of Springer Mountain in Georgia. The Trail passes
through New Hampshire’s White Mountains and Vermont’s Green Mountains,
the Berkshires, Catskills, and Poconos. Towards the southern end are
the Appalachian Mountains, the Shenandoah Valley, and the Great
Smokies. Hiking through these mountain ranges is

Trail—if they have succeeded

Answer:
OD To make Gregor seem less connected to his parents.
Explanation:
Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" revolves around the transformation of Gregor Samsa into an insect, making him alienated and reclusive of his own family. Moreover, the story delves into the aloofness, alienation, change, and the importance of family relations in an individual's life.
As given in the question, the two translations of the same text make a different aspect of the story and its characters. While Joachim Neugroschel's translation addressed the parents using the article "the", David Wyllie's translation used the possessive pronoun "his" to refer to Gregor's parents. This difference in referring to the parents is that while <u>Wyllie's version shows a close bond between the parents-son, Neugroschel presents a rather disconnected relationship between Gregor and his parents</u>. He seems to address or mention the parents in such a way that they feel no connection to their son, who has changed.
This use of "the" for the parents instead of "his" seems to show the weak or rather strained connection between Gregor and his parents. Thus, the <u>correct answer is option D</u>.
