Unclear question. However, I inferred you are referring to the story "Fences".
Explanation:
Now that in the story mention was made that "Troy Mason lived in his own little world and that he viewed the people in his life as revolving around him". The expression "he viewed the people in his life as revolving around him" indicates his privileged position which makes him feel superior to others.
Answer:
The correct answer is a. Like Harburg, many expected that they could maintain their possessions through the Depression.
Explanation:
E. Y. -Yip- Harburg was an American songwriter, known by working with many popular artists as well as movies; he is the author of <em>Over the Rainbow</em>, from <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>.
The correct answer is letter A since the excerpt could be divided in two different ideas: the first one describes the American dream, compared with the Rock of Gibraltar due to the idea of its strength; there are some other elements that reinforce this idea, such as the marble outside of houses and the though of permanence. The second idea is the last sentence, where everything vanishes into nothing by exploding. This way, it is understood that many people expected to keep their possessions, but it did not happen.
The tone of the narrative changes from being against Beowulf to accepting him at this point in lines 208–212.
What is syntactic device?
A tool that can manipulate values, such as a computer or jeejah, is referred to as a syndev (syndev for short). Compare it to a semantic device, such as the human brain, which has the ability to manipulate values while also connecting them to more abstract concepts. If one views Gödel's [Completeness Theorem] as the tie that binds mathematics and computing science—which may be viewed as sister sciences—together, then the term "Syntactic Device" and its dualism with the concept of Semantic Device may have their roots in this dualism. In this context, computing science represents the syntactic aspect and mathematics the semantic aspect.
The reader learns that even when violence is used against a blatantly evil opponent, it still causes suffering and summons vengeance when the poem switches to Grendel's point of view during his battle with Beowulf.

<em>Atlas Shrugged - The Trilogy</em>
You know when you're sick and need something mindless to watch? And the thing you pick turns out to be so terrible that you almost become sicker? That describes the Atlas Shrugged trilogy.
I could spend hours going on about how bad this movie was but here are some of the lowlights.
First off...the cast changes from movie to movie...not the characters the actors playing them. Whether it was because the people making the films were running out of money and the subsequent sequels were budgeted lower grade I don't know but...it was a wee bit off putting.
Secondly...the whole trilogy is shot in some sort of soft focus sort of thing more reminiscent of softcore entertainment from the 90s. Maybe it was intended to make it more sci-fi-ish or something but...again...no clue.
Thirdly...the dialogue. I have never ready Ayn Rand's work nor do I care to but...my god...if these movies are even a faint reflection of her work then it so so heavy handed and over the top that it's more than slightly cringeworthy.
Fourthly the editing was/is atrocious. Characters appear and disappear almost at will. Little explanation is given to motive or...anything.
I freely admit I watched it until the end out of...self loathing or something I don't know but...if you don't want to make yourself even sicker...avoid it at all costs.
