Answer:

A challenging configuration in Harrison Bergeron is the inclusion of absurd, fanciful and cynical situations amid the narration of a tense, violent and serious moment. This helps us to understand the amazing universe and often bordering on the absurd that the author wanted to create for his story.

Explanation:

Harrison Bergeron is a short story written by Kurt Vonnegut, which presents a dystopian universe where the US government requires that all citizens be equal in their abilities. In this universe, no one can be more beautiful, but intelligent to the most talented than other citizens, at the risk of being harshly oppressed by the government.

The author uses a simple language in the short story which facilitates the comprehension of anyone who proposes to read it, however, to show the amazing universe created by the author, he decided to configure the text with absurd, funny and senseless events inside serious and tense situations in history.

Group of concrete nouns is

Library, books, America

Explanation:

Concrete Noun:

Nouns which can be perceived by any one or more of five senses (i.e touch, sight, hearing, taste, smell) are called concrete nouns. In other words things which have a physical existence are called concrete nouns Physical existence does not imply weight and matter only - it can also be light, noise, rainbow etc.

Some obvious examples of concrete nouns are table, room, glass, computer etc.

Opposite to concrete nouns are

Abstract Nouns: These nouns can not be perceived by five senses. They exist only as an idea. e.g wisdom, laziness, beauty etc.

Name of real countries, places, cities are considered concrete nouns. Country/city/town are also concrete nouns so are river, school, college.

Whereas paradise, colleague, angels, life, values, freedom are all abstract nouns.

enyata [817]

Answer:

We know that the relation between the sound of a word and its meaning is arbitrary because:

A. Different languages have different words that refer to the same objects/concepts.

Explanation:

There are two reasons for this answer. First, only cognates work as a kind of synonym because they come from the same origin. Second, the majority of languages don't share the same origin, rules, inspirations, and applications. Therefore different words refer to the same objects. An example is red, Rojo, aka. All of them mean red.
