Debora [2.8K]
Based on this excerpt, it is reasonable to conclude that neither twin could die because they were immortal gods. The excerpt tells us that none of brothers died, and also it points out that they are the creators that once stepped on separate paths. They are still alive, but not in the sense that we are used to think. Each one has its duty and now they both look at the world from different sides.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH JUST ONE QUESTION!!!
liubo4ka [24]

Answer and Explanation:

This question refers to the short story "Harrison Bergeron", by Kurt Vonnegut. Set in the future, the plot revolves around a strange type of equality imposed by the American government. People who are beautiful, talented, or intelligent, for example, are forced to wear handicaps to be ordinary. Harrison is a 14-year-old who wears several handicaps. One day, he escapes prison, rips his handicaps off in live television, and dances with a ballerina. However, they are both shot and killed by the Handicapper General, Diana Moon Glampers.

Imagine that Diana Moon Glampers had missed and that Harrison and the ballerina escaped. How might the story's plot have changed?

If Harrison and the ballerina had escaped, it is possible that the plot would develop toward their being chased down by the government. It is also possible that other people who were forced to wear handicaps might feel inspired by Harrison's action. Perhaps more and more people would begin to tear off their handicaps and join Harrison in his act of defiance.
