Read the following passage and answer the question that follows: (1) One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, h

e found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. (2) "What's happened to me?" he thought. It wasn't a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table—Samsa was a travelling salesman—and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer. (3) Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite sad. "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense," he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn't get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn't have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before. What main conflict is revealed so far in this story? Gregor does not enjoy his job. Gregor is having disturbing dreams. Gregor has transformed into a bug. Gregor cannot sleep.

Answer:

Gregor has transformed into a bug.

Explanation:

The passage describes Gregor Samsa as a "horrible vermin", with a brown belly with many legs, which sounds like a cockroach. It is true that he tries to sleep in hopes that his transformation was simply a dream, but the thing stopping sleep from coming is that he has become a bug.

Hope this helps!

Explanation: Imagine a cricket, a beetle or a cockroach and see if the description fits. Gregor is no longer in human form. It will pose some problems with his relationships.

What term is used to describe nonfiction written works such as newspaper articles, essays, and biographies?
LiRa [457]
Expository, which means that everything being said is based off of true facts. A newspaper gives you live coverage of what is happening around the world. Essays are nonfictional because you mostly write them based off of a document you have read. And biographies are made by THAT person it's written over.
