Which comparison between events in the passage would best support a claim that a significant theme of the passage is fulfillment
? Theodora’s completion of her manuscript and the postman’s delay in bringing a response from the publisher A Theodora’s waiting for the publisher’s response and her time in the woods after her manuscript has been accepted B Theodora’s isolation from her family and her reading of the publisher’s response regarding her manuscript C Theodora’s plans for caring for her family and the family’s feelings about her failure to follow through with those plans D Theodora’s thoughts about her family’s situation and her dreams about her own future after her manuscript has been published
Theodora´s waiting for the publisher´s response and her time in the woods after her manuscript has been accepted.
Explanation:
I know from personal experience that the feelings that come along when a manuscript is finished and accepted, can rightly be described as pure fulfillment. In A the manuscript is finished but she cannot feel really fulfilled because the response of the publisher is needed to do so.
Family problems (C & D) can´t be seen in the light of fullfillment.
The central theme of Fahrenheit 451 is the conflict between freedom of thought and censorship. The society that Bradbury depicts has voluntarily given up books and reading, and by and large the people do not feel oppressed or censored.
