Part A: The correct answer is first statement. The major theme of “Harrison Bergeron” written by Kurt Vonnegut is that close-minded people are a threat to beauty, individuality, and self-expression. In this short story, Kurt wanted to present that total equality isn’t always good by creating a dystopia in which, to achieve equality, close-minded people are targeting intelligent, strong and beautiful people and strip them of their extraordinary characteristics. Those who represent individualism are being handicapped by Handicapper General so that others won’t feel inferior.

Part B: Evidence from the text that best represents answer in part A is the second one. By describing how hard government is working to make everyone equal, Vonnegut is directing reader’s attention on the concept of dystopian society to show how cruel it can be on those with “extraordinary characteristics”. Close-minded people feel inferior to individualists and by trying to be equal to them they treat their beauty, intelligence and strength, instead of trying to achieve more.

<span>To show that the journalist knows more about what happened. I think this may be the case because the translator who I assume is the journalist raised his voice at Iqbal as did the mother to Iqbal's answer to the question about what happened after the shot was fired and the fact that Iqbal was " crying and confused" may mean he has some guilt in the affair. </span>
