Answer:

The magnet's real problem with being a magnet is:

D. The magnet can't get physically close to his friends because their magnetic forces push each other away.

Explanation:

In the short story "The Sad Tale of the Lonely Magnet," the narrator is the magnet himself. He is in general happy for being a magnet, saying it is advantageous to be able to hold on to things without using his hands. He does express some difficulties concerning big metallic objects, such as buses, because he has to use a lot of strength to pass by them without getting stuck. But that is not the issue that really bothers him.

<u>The magnet's real problem is the fact that he can't get physically close to his friends. They are pushed away by the magnetic force they exert. That makes him sad, especially because he would like to hug, high five, or simply shake hands with his best friend.</u> In the end of the story, the magnet meets someone who has the opposite polarity and, for that reason, instead of repelling, they attract each other. So, we have a happy ending.

Option b

<u>Explanation:</u>

Sexual desire isn’t affected by age but mainly by a person state of mind. The research conducted has revealed that couples do enjoy sex until the age of 80's. Factors that may decrease desire have to do more with physical problems that come with ageing, illnesses, aches and pains and self-image where one may feel like they aren’t attractive anymore.

Also, the physical incapacity to actually engage in the act of lovemaking shouldn’t hinder other forms of intimacy. Couples do still enjoy physical intimacy by the act of touching, intimate conversation, physical closeness and etc.
