"am i less sensitive than i used to be, then? ", he thought, and was already sucking greedily at the cheese which had immediately, almost compellingly, attracted him much more than the other foods on the newspaper. quickly one after another, his eyes watering with pleasure, he consumed the cheese, the vegetables and the sauce; the fresh foods, on the other hand, he didn't like at all, and even dragged the things he did want to eat a little way away from them because he couldn't stand the smell. kafka, the metamorphosis (david wyllie, trans.) what can you infer about gregor from this excerpt? a. he enjoys disturbing his family by making a lot of noise. b. he is upset at being locked in the room and tries to escape. c. he is becoming less human and more like a bug. d. he is depressed and is trying to hurt himself.

What character trait does penelope demonstrate when she calls for the suitors to hold a contest? what other character has a similar trait? she demonstrates cleverness, like odysseus does when he tricks and overcomes foes. she demonstrates hospitality, like the phaeacians do when odysseus lands on their island. she demonstrates a lack of confidence, like telemachus does when he fails to kick out the suitors. she demonstrates a lack of self control, like odysseus’s men do when they slaughter helios’s cattle.

Read this excerpt from "the light of gandhi's lamp" by hilary kromberg inglis, in which she describes driving to the police station where her sister is being detained. to avoid looking at the blackened windows at the top of the building and thinking about the history of who had died or been tortured there, i always looked instead at the little chinese restaurant on the opposite side of the road. how does this passage affect the text? it conveys, with great subtlety, the conflict she felt over having a sister who would break the law and end up in the custody of the police. it conveys, without any implied moral judgment, that those who fought against apartheid considered themselves to be soldiers in a just war. it conveys, with an extended metaphor, the idea that being detained by the police in this society was regarded as a badge of honor. it conveys, with direct language, the view held by many anti-apartheid activists that the police often acted in brutal and unlawful ways.
