Answer:

Papa's agreeing to teach Sarah to ride a horse and drive a wagon develop a theme in Sarah, Plain and Tall which expresses the love and selflessness that exists in a family unit.

Explanation:

The central theme in Sarah, Plain and Tall is the family. As Papa agrees to teach Sarah to ride a horse and drive a wagon, we see that the this shows up the buildup of a complete family unit.

In the story, Papa, known as Jacob has been without a wife after his wife died. He was the only one taking care of his two children, Anna and Caleb and the farm. So, he made an advert asking for a wife and a mother. Then Sarah responded to the advert.

When Sarah came, she demanded to learn how to ride horse and drive wagon which Papa agreed to teach her. This builds up the existing theme of the family and expresses the love and selflessness the husband portrays to his wife.

Which two excerpts from Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis show how Gregor’s sister, Grete, transformed in the story?

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

"Father. You've got to get rid of the idea that that's Gregor. We've only harmed ourselves by believing if for so long. "
"Grete was becoming livelier. With all the worry they had been having of late her cheeks had become pale, but, while they were talking, Mr. and Mrs. Samsa were struck almost simultaneously, with the thought of how their daughter was blossoming into a well built and beautiful young lady."

Explanation:

Grete Samsa is the sister of Gregor of the story in Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. Confronting the change of his sibling into a cockroach, Grete develops from being a modest young lady to a solid young lady, in the initial segment of the story Grete has a powerless identity and gives other a chance to abuse her however as the story proceeds with Grete's identity ends up more grounded.

Grete is the main person from Gregor's family that comprehends Gregor and can confront him as a cockroach, and her new obligations are what influence her certainty to develop, she is the one that understands that Gregor needs to go, and her folks see her change into a functioning and friendly young lady.
