In the short story "Harrison Bergeron," George and Hazel are Harrison's parents, and they live in a world that imposes equality through the use of handicaps.
<h3>What happens in the story?</h3>
In Kurt Vonnegut's short story "Harrison Bergeron," George and Hazel are Harrison's parents. They live in a futuristic world where the government tries to enforce equality by making people wear handicaps. No one is allowed to be more intelligent or beautiful, for example, than another person.
George wears a handicap to prevent him from being too intelligent. Hazel, on the other hand, is completely average, so she wears no handicaps whatsoever. Harrison wears several, since he is handsome, smart, and strong. He ends up in prison for removing them, but he escapes.
Harrison appears on TV and removes his handicaps once again. He ends up being killed by the government while his mother watches. However, since she is not smart enough to understand what just happened, she cannot even tell his father that their son has died.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.

Answer:
C Excessive Internet and video game usage hasn't been defined as an addiction in an official capacity, but it negatively impacts the lives of those who experience it.
F Our society's dependency on devices makes it difficult to change one's relationship with technology, but health and technology professionals are exploring solutions.
Explanation:
The article, "Screen Addiction Among Teens: Is There Such A Thing? by Anya Kamenetz clearly shows that experts have refused to call excessive usage of phones and other technological devices an 'addiction'. Evidence of this can be seen in the absence of such a diagnostic term in the vocabulary of the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual. Some others believe that it is a very strong word to be used in describing teenagers. An example is Maia Salavitz who believes that it is a 'strong move' to label someone an addict thereby implying that he has a chronic disease.
However, all of these do not rule out the fact that there is an addiction, and technology experts like Zichermann who developed an application to monitor usage, and health professionals who launch campaigns to discourage excessive usage are working hard to curb the [problem.
