Answer: The theme of Fate and free will

Explanation: In the story, Mrs. Mallard's sister is afraid to tell her the news that she is now a widow, she is afraid that she might suffer a heart attack. Nevertheless, when Mrs. Mallard isolates herself in her room, she starts feeling a sensation of freeness. She realizes that she will finally be liberated from her oppressing marriage. This reaction is ironic since the reader is expecting her to be devastated. The theme of fate and free will is suggested because regardless of how liberated she starts to feel, she is destined to perish from joy at the end of the story.

How does the second passage develop Kaku’s idea that humans have become active choreographers of nature?
dybincka [34]

In the Michio Kaku's book, Visions, he states that we are continuing to rush ahead. To prove that, he says “In the past decade more scientific knowledge has been created than in all of human history.” Since we are so advance, we don't need to be observers "of the dance of Nature". We have moved “from being passive observers of Nature to being active choreographers of Nature.” We are no longer discovering, now we are creating. Conserning future predictions Kaku says to listen to "those who create it".
