Answer:

1) Mr. Nilson's anxiety about interacting neighbor highlights the consequences of isolating oneself from experience.

Explanation:

In "The Japanese Quince" we are introduced to Mr. Nilson, who is a businessman accustomed to presenting a practical and haughty image that the profession requires. However, one day when admiring a tree in his garden, he shows a certain vulnerability, as it shows that he was touched by nature. At that moment, he leaves the house to enjoy the tree more closely and meets the neighbor he never met, but who looks a lot like him. When he looks at his neighbor, it is as if he is looking at himself through the mirror. He does not want to face and experience his own vulnerability and therefore decides to return home, where he can be free from the image of the neighbor, who represents what he is.
