Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. He must pay off his parents' debts.

Explanation:

Gregor Samsa is the main character in Franz Kafka's novel "The Metamorphosis". After waking up one morning to find himself transformed into a bug, Gregor begins to think about his job as a traveling salesman. Even though he absolutely hates it, he is not able to quit. He dislikes waking up so early, meeting people without really bonding with them, having to worry about traveling and timetables etc. Still, since he has to pay off his parents' debts, he keeps the job he loathes:

<em> If I didn’t hold back for my parents’ sake, I would’ve  quit ages ago. I would’ve gone to the boss and told him just  what I think from the bottom of my heart. He would’ve fallen right off his desk!</em>

Read the passages. "A Defence of Poetry” Poetry thus makes immortal all that is best and most beautiful in the world; it arrests
tino4ka555 [31]

The correct answer is <em>"It demonstrates poetry’s ability to “arrest the vanishing apparitions” of life by preserving an image of a fleeting moment in time"</em>

The extract from Mutability describes how they feel and it compares to clouds. But especifically to night clouds. Owing to that, the narrator explains how they are and how they disappear when the night finishes, he highlights that unique moment in a nice way. It is presented as one of the prettiest things of the world and because it is written, makes it inmortal.

On January 1st, every 13-year-old woke up with the ability to fly.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

On January 1st, every 13-year-old woke up with the ability to fly. It happened one January five years ago. It was magical, unexpected, and insane! We don't know what happened-<em>how it happened-</em>but it happened. I had turned 13, and it was January 1st! I woke up on this day, excited. I looked on my back, but there were no wings. I thought I might come into the air any second now, but nothing happened. I looked out the window, and every 13-year-old was flying! What had happened to me? Was the magic not working? Until we realized, that was not the story. There was a background to this impossible thing, and I was very much part of it.
