The description of Britain's foreign policy during the Victorian era is D. Fear of competition leads to cautious isolationism.
There was no suggestion of 'British imperialism' as imperialism at that time has a strong connotation of dogma and politics as consideration for the acquisition of territory.

Consider the word metamorphosis and evaluate it in terms of Gregor, his parents, and his sister as characters who develop differ
NARA [144]

Answer:

Gregor

Even though Gregor is the only character to undergo a physical transformation, he experiences perhaps the least emotional growth of all the characters. That’s not to say he doesn’t evolve, though. He changes somewhat when he starts putting his own wants and desires over those of his family. He basks in the joy of freedom and escape from responsibility, and he spends hours hanging from the ceiling enjoying himself. He even learns to stand up for himself. At one point, he attempts to defend his belongings when Grete tries to get rid of them. He also tries to obtain human pleasure by listening to his sister play the violin. However, his story has a sad ending. He seems to return to his self-sacrificing ways by dying so that he will no longer be a burden to his family, leaving them free to prosper.

Mr. Samsa

Gregor’s metamorphosis brings about a metamorphosis in his parents, especially his father. Prior to Gregor’s change, his father was a decrepit old man who never got dressed and who could hardly walk. However, after Gregor’s transformation, his father is overcome with newfound confidence. He gets a job as a bank messenger and never takes off his new blue uniform. Gregor’s death strengthens his father further, empowering him to stand up to the lodgers and the charwoman.

Mrs. Samsa

Mrs. Samsa is sympathetic to Gregor during his crisis, although she seems unable to relate to him or even tolerate his presence. She displays both nervous and sentimental behavior while Gregor is alive. For example, she faints upon seeing him but tries to prevent her husband from killing him. His death seems to loosen her up, and she accompanies her husband and daughter on their family vacation. She even manages to get a job for herself as a seamstress in an underwear company.

Grete  

Grete undergoes significant change over the course of the story. She starts off taking care of and protecting Gregor when he’s transformed into an insect. Later, she grows tired of him and begins to resent him. She starts neglecting him and encourages the family to get rid of him. Gregor’s transformation and death has a liberating effect on her. All her life, she had been dependent on him for everything. However, after he changes, she becomes more independent and starts taking on more responsibility. She gets a job as a salesgirl and starts learning shorthand and French to improve her future prospects. The story ends on a promising note for Grete, who can now look forward to getting married and starting a new life.

Just need a little help with these two problems. I got the rest, it's just these two.
jok3333 [9.3K]

I can help you with  question 1. For question 2,  I am not sure if it refers to the examples in quesion 1 or others.

The right answer is C), struggles with the emotions and behaviors related to following society. Eugène Ionesco describes his main character as a mediocre person who does not want to surrender to society. He uses words like” unshaven, with unkempt hair and creased clothes” to depict his carelessness for physical appearance. Berenger is an alcoholic and has no drive in life. He does not fight for anything. He has neglected himself and his life.

Yet, he comes out in the story as someone who sticks to the  hope of not giving up. Ionesco shows this by having him say : “Now I’ll never be a rhinoceros, never, never! “.Berenger, like a true hero, is the only  one willing to put up a fight  against the rhinoceros.
