IV. Narcissism: Beyond just being distracting and dangerous, ear buds are detrimental and damaging to society as a whole. Ear bu

ds work against a community of listeners. Everyone is walking all over the neighborhood, plugged into their latest favorite playlist, but no one is talking to anyone. People who are addicted to their ear buds don't care about other people. They don't want community and contact with the real world. Ear buds also actively destroy live musicians' ability to make a living with their art form.

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Earbuds are far too expensive to buy.

Explanation:

Throughout the passage, the author never mentioned anything about the price of headphones. However, he did discuss how headphones destroy communities (par. 4), impede student learning (par. 3), and damage hearing (par. 5).

Match the events from Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis to the themes they reflect.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Grete’s insistence near the end of the story that it would be best for her family to get rid of Gregor, and her claim that “it” was not her brother anymore - the theme of<u> betrayal</u>

Mr. Samsa’s physical abuse of Gregor with the apple, which severely injures him and limits his ability to move - the theme of <u>persecution</u>

Gregor’s enjoyment at being able to crawl around his room all day without having to deal with any family or work-related responsibility - the theme of<u> freedom</u>

Gregor’s inability to communicate with others after his transformation into an insect -  the theme of <u>isolation</u>

Explanation:

<em>The Metamorphosis </em>is a novel written by Franz Kafka and published in 1915. The novel tells a rather unusual story of Gregor, a salesman who is suddenly transformed into a huge insect. Throughout the novel, Gregor and his family try to adapt to this new situation. Although the circumstances in the story are different from the real life, the themes explored in this piece are familiar to all of us. Gregor is initially happy that he is able to crawl all day and is free from all the responsibilities of a mundane life. However, he cannot communicate with those around him, which makes him rather lonely and isolated. At the end of the story, Gregor's sister wants to get rid of him and abandons him, which is an act of betrayal that only worsens the whole situation.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

I've never heard of this, but, um, sure.

Explanation:

I don't think anyone should be charged for acting in self-defense. That's the only reason why the word "self-defense" exists, so it's our explanation for why we did something to a person physically after they did something first.
