APEX - D. Because the government wants to hide her exquisite beauty.

Answer: D. Because the government wants to hide her exquisite beauty.

In "Harrison Bergeron," we encounter a dystopian society in which every citizen is meant to be equal to everyone else. The way in which the government achieves this is through the use of "handicaps." People who are too intelligent, too beautiful or too graceful wear these in order to resemble everyone else. This is the case of the ballerina. As she was extremely beautiful, she is forced to wear a mask so that she is not any better than the rest of the population.

The above said- statements holds true concerning today's life as well. Buddha said that death is common to all mortals. Those are born must die one day. Death is certain, can't be avoided.As ripe fruits fall of the trees, so is the life of mortals.Life of a man is like an earthen pots that breaks and meets its end. No amount of weeping and lamenting produce no gains.It rather spoils one's health and gives more pain.If only you take out the arrow of lamentation and get composed, you will get peace of mind.To overcome sorrow, become free of sorrow.But in today's world, man has forgotten this.He makes all kinds of efforts to provide himself with the comforts and earns money by all means whether wrong or right. He forgets that one day he has to die and everything will be left here here only.

Answer:

A: Video games have negative effects on teenagers.

Explanation:

The question what the author's overall opinion on video games is. So, the reader should find the main idea of the passage. Throughout the text, the author brings up many problems video games cause like lack of activity, lack of friends, and worse grades. The author also brings up more effects video games have. Since the majority of the text is about overall negative effects on teenagers it is clear that A is correct. Additionally, much of the author's dictation has negative connotations. So, it is safe to say that they do not support video games. This is another indicator of the author's viewpoint.
