Answer:
D. Additional constitutional amendments would gradually remove individual rights and freedoms.
Explanation:
In the book "Harrison Bergeron", Vonnegut imagines an American society in 2018 where all Americans are expected by government to be equal in all respects. If anyone was found to be too beautiful or intelligent they were to be handicapped by the use of masks and radios respectively.
This system of government represents a society with a tyrannical style of leadership. Such a government would also necessitate the limitations of the rights and freedom of the citizens, since they have no say on the conditions for equality. More so, the conditions for equality are dehumanizing.
Answer: Shiny! [Grabbing the thread, which she holds
throughout the scene.] (line 5)
Explanation:
The correct answer is ''Shiny!'', line 5. It is referring to the Race for Atalanta and Hippomenes. There were living mortals who were faster than Atalanta so Hippomenes knew that he needed help if he wants to win the race. Hippomenes then decided to ask Aphrodite for help, and she helped him because she did not like Atalanta's thinking about marriage and love.
So when the race began, there were 3 golden apples and when he threw the first one, it already has caught Atalanta's eyes. Then she grabbed the thread and the Hippomenes was leading the race.
The point the king is trying to make is, essentially, that while what Hitler did was considered legal and while what the Hungarian Freedom Fighters did was illegal, it is all a matter of human rights. While what Hitler did may have been legal, it was not morally correct to kill 6 million people. And while it was illegal to aid the Jews and provide comfort, it is morally correct to help these people in a time of need, as stated by the golden rule of every religion, do unto others as you would like to have done to you. It is mostly based on what people believe is correct and if certain people believed what Hitler believed, they would not have that certain moral correctness. So in standing up for what you believe in, a change can be made based on the actions; illegal or not.
