The correct answers are A and C.
In Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis", after Gregor transforms into a vermin, he stays in his room, away from his family's sight.
However, his sister Grete enters the room to bring Gregor food. At first, he hid under a sofa. But afterwards, when he noticed his sister's disgust upon looking at him, he started covering himself with a sheet, to prevent her from seeing him altogether.
This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
Which sentence signals a plot twist about halfway through the story?
“The kid with the earring starts screaming, ‘Goldfish, goldfish.'”
“‘No reason to take him to the hospital anyway,' says the goldfish.”
“Sergei . . . tells the kid, it's nothing, just a regular goldfish.”
“Sergei understands the boy . . . came . . . to snatch Sergei's fish.”
Answer:
The correct answer is “‘No reason to take him to the hospital anyway,' says the goldfish.”
Explanation:
A plot twist is a radical and unexpected turn of events that occurs suddenly for the viewer and that has enough relevance to change the fate of the protagonists of the narrative who suffer from it.
In short, and in simpler words, a plot twist takes place when there is an event that no one expected and that makes a 180 degree turn to what had happened previously.
In this case, it would be the fact that Sergei does not want to use his last wish because he does not want to let the goldfish go free.
No, this is false because an example of a present tense verb would be jump or turn. Past tense would be jumped or turned. So, this statement is not true because -ed, -d, and -t would be past not present part.
