The answer is A). The excerpt "Alan Moore claimed that he was giving up writing for comics because he had been converted to religion of a serpent god called Glycon" is an example of plagiarism.
This excerpt from a student essay presents the same information that provides the book<em> Off to See the Wizard: A Biography of Alan Moore </em>by Jonah Sinnott. Furthermore, the author of this excerpt does not quote Sinnott nor adds the page number of his book. That is to say, the author takes Sinott's words and presents it as if they were his/her own words. In order to give credit to the real author, the writer of the excerpt should have named the source or added the page number as it has been done in the excerpts from options B), C) and D).

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>.
D who are the main characters is base intention to reading.
