Answer:

The paragraph 54-56 furthers the theme of oppression by indirectly letting the reader know of Dickie's death.

Explanation:

"Examination Day" is a short story written by Henry Slesar. The story is about a dystopian society, that is governed by a totalitarian government. The youth of this society is required to go through a compulsorily IQ test.

The story begins with Dickie's twelfth birthday celebration. The day is also important as he have to go through this compulsory IQ test. Dickie is an intelligent and curious boy, who is excited for his exam. The main theme of the story is oppression. The society in which Jordans live is governed by a Government that is controlling and oppressive. It is the government that decides the freedom of its citizen in the story.

<u>Paragraph 54-56 of the story tells about the death of Dickie. After taking the test, Dickie exceeded the IQ quotient, which was above the Governmental rules. The rule of the government suggested that anyone who exceeds the IQ quotient would be killed. And, in paragraph 54-56, it became evident that Dickie has been killed by the government for exceeding in the test when the caller asked Mr. Jordan about the burial of the body. These paragraphs not only brings fear but also furthered the theme of oppression in the story</u>.
