A. I hope this helps! (If I’m wrong I’m so very sorry it just seems right to me)
B) Authoritative but humorous
Vonnegut used television to reinforce a theme within the text, because: By broadcasting the deaths of Harrison and the ballerina, television is used to ensure conformity and control the citizens. This shows the dangers of "total equality" as violence is used to ensure equality.
<h3>What is the theme of Harrison Bergeron?</h3>
"Harrison Bergeron," which was written by Kurt Vonnegut showed an American society where citizens were made to conform to the dictates of society. Harrison rebelled and danced at a televised program.
He was, however, killed by Diana and this was seen by the viewers. The broadcast of the death shows that rebellion will not be tolerated. This will instill fear in the viewers.

Summary of Trash Vortex:
Plastic started to flood into people's lives. It replaced lots of other materials too. Also, it would be transformed into new objects. Children would play with plastic putty. This shows us that plastic is really popular, but the cost of being popular can harm our environment. People use plastic materials in their modern life. Plastic offered other conveniences such as disposable items like plates, cups, napkins. Although they're all meant to be thrown away after use.
Plastic trash began to accumulate in waterways. This caused waterways to be polluted and non-safe drinking water with diseases. For example, Ohio's river was so polluted with chemicals it caught on fire. causing to catch the attention of government leaders. The federal clean water act added rules in 1972 on industrial plants along waterways. That said waterways continued to trash accumulating a bit in reason of wind sweeping plastic and other non-disposable items.
I'm not sure if this is correct if Trash Vortex is about plastic and pollution, but I'm glad I helped. :)
