Having fun and scaring people can hold the same energy as being scared. you can be having so much fun scaring people with the same amount of energy as being scared. both come with the same amount of energy, just not in the same way.
What excerpt ??? I’m confused bro tell me in the comments
Even though option D is also related to Modernism and could be related to the excerpt, option C seems to be the correct one: It conveys the idea of isolation from modern life.
Modernist were called "the lost generation" because of their search for meaning among the fragments of modern life. In the excerpt, the words "lonely men" seem to address the theme of isolation and alienation in society. While everyone seems to have a role to perform in modern life, that does not mean they have found their true identity. Some sort of value seems to have been lost and, with it, men lost themselves. Modernism is characterized by the search of such value.
It would C since Gregor struggles with letting go of things
