This question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:
Read this thesis statement: "<em>Heart of Darkness</em> plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo." What is wrong with it?:
A) It is too narrow.
B) It is a plot summary.
C) It is too obvious.
D) It is not supported by the text.
Answer:
The correct answer is option A) It is too narrow.
Explanation:
As we know, this story is narrated by the protagonist, Charlie Marlow, who tells us of the journey he made going up a tropical river to locate a certain Kurtz, an elusive and legendary explorer who, according to his superiors, seems to have entrenched himself deep inside from the jungle. Soon the journey turns into a multi-troubled journey, with mystery and degradation growing as the legend of Lord Kurtz enlarges and takes shape.
The novel is based on a true story in the life of Conrad, who sailed up the Congo River as a ship captain in 1890 while working for the SGB company. There, amid the exploitation and genocide that the settlers carried out in the Congo Free State - the private preserve of King Leopold II of Belgium - Conrad was truly traumatized, wanting to relate the horror of his experience in a book in which, on the other hand, and despite the parallels between author and protagonist, no real places or characters are mentioned.
Just using the phrase<em> "plunges the narrator into the depths of the Congo"</em> is too vague to describe the actual plot. Therefore, answer A is correct.
The major difference between the text and the image is that the text focuses on characters, while the image focuses on the setting.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The text attempts to show some of the characters that are present in the plot. The crew, as explained in the text, seem to be sulking due to their failed attempt at catching fishes on that particular day.
Furthermore, their captain yet reminds them that they shall be getting their share of the money based on the number of fishes they catch.
These particulars depict the characters that are present in the plot and their state of mind at that time.
Contrary to that, the image that is shown is that of a ship caught up in a mighty storm, showing the setting of the ship, and not the of the character's that are present in the ship
Hence this is the difference between the text and the image.
