What theme does the following excerpt from Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis deal with? Hearing these words from his mother made G

regor realise that the lack of any direct human communication, along with the monotonous life led by the family during these two months, must have made him confused—he could think of no other way of explaining to himself why he had seriously wanted his room emptied out. Had he really wanted to transform his room into a cave, a warm room fitted out with the nice furniture he had inherited? That would have let him crawl around unimpeded in any direction, but it would also have let him quickly forget his past when he had still been human. He had come very close to forgetting, and it had only been the voice of his mother, unheard for so long, that had shaken him out of it. Nothing should be removed; everything had to stay; he could not do without the good influence the furniture had on his condition; and if the furniture made it difficult for him to crawl about mindlessly that was not a loss but a great advantage.
A. The drudgery of middle-class life.
B. The breakdown of social structures.
C. The disconnection between mind and body.

Answer:

C. The disconnection between mind and body.

Explanation:

It isn't about the ineffectiveness of language because it isn't put to a test in the excerpt. There's nothing specifically about middle-class nor social structures for that matter. It's all about Gregor's social anxiety. His will to do things although he isn't really able to rationalize them. His is struggling mentally while wanting physically other things. The room isn't good for his body in the state that he is, but it would do no good for his mind since he could forget that he was human.

What is the overall tone of this poem? Hap by Thomas Hardy If but some vengeful god would call to me From up the sky, and laugh:
rjkz [21]
In Thomas Hardy's <em>Hap</em>, the speaker ponders about how it would be more bearable to think that all of his misfortunes happen because a greater power has decided so, than the <em>reality </em>(by his perspective) which is that his <em>bad luck </em>in life was a result of random chance and unfortunate coincidence. 

Because of his ponderance, we could say that this poem shows a reflective speaker. While some people think that this shows a pessimist thinker, Hardy was known for his realistic vision of life.

Therefore, your best answer is reflective.
