Then he grinned and said in english, “Welcome to the United States of America! ” and in that instant, joy won the fight on mama’s face. We were taken to a boat that would sail us across the harbor to the city and a brand new life. As i boarded i smiled up at lady liberty who stood tall with her spoon in hand, ready to stir us in.

Answer from: Quest

the correct answer is: reveal gregor as an untidy individual.

in metamorphosis by franz kafka, gregor samsa is the main character, who one day wakes up as a bug, and the attitude he takes upon his transformation forces him to go deeper on his existence and the new features of his body.

in this excerpt the writer mentions a table full of collection textile samples, which gives us a hint about gregor being messy. later on the book we discover how he is a really untidy individual.
