The answer to this question would be A. True.
Lack of motivation indeed carries a message that is worth heeding. These extremes are all carriers of messages that might be that the one posing as their mother ship can't express what they really want, thus they conform to the wills and demands of other people most likely their parents or friends. Another possibility would be that they want to escape or forget it or even hide it from other people. A lack of motivation tells the observer that the one being observed is most likely doing something which isn't in line with the person's passion.
A peaceful Utopian world where people due not need to worry about financial troubles or poverty.
"I would like before I die to live in a community where no individual has an income that could not provide his family with the ordinary comforts and pleasures of life, and where no individual has an income so large that he did not have to think about his expenditures, and where the spread between is not so great but that the essentials of life may lie within the possession of all concerned. There could be no give and take in many ways for pleasure, but there need be no acceptance of charity."

Allusion is a reference to something. It's to imply a meaning based on an external thing.
What is similar about the presentation of the scene of the execution in the image and the text is that both demonstrate that Dionysius is in command of the situation.
In <em>Damon and Pythias,</em> <u>Pythias is condemned to death by Dionysius</u>, a Greek politician who ruled Syracuse. In the myth, <u>Pythias asks permission from the ruler</u> to return home and set his affairs in order, which implies that Dionysius has the power to decide everything. Moreover, <u>it is the politician who also determines to free both Damon and Pythias</u>. Therefore, throughout the story, <u>it is Dionysius who controls the fate of the two friends.</u> This can also be seen in the image, where <u>Dionysius is sitting on the throne wearing his crown. </u>Furthermore, the ruler is pointing someone, which indicates he is giving an order. He also has his army standing in front of him and a soldier behind him for protection.
