Question

Which two excerpts from Franz Kafka’s The Metamorphosis show how Gregor’s sister, Grete, transformed in the story?

Answer 1

the answer is A... and... D

Answer 2

The correct answers are 1 y 4.  In option one it is evident that Grete, who at the beginning of the story was a sweet girl, now has changed completely with his brother, Gregor, who was the one that always believed in her and that supported her studies. Nonetheless, since Gregor has become a bug, Grete no longer loves him because she is disgusted by the new appearance of her brother and she cannot stand going inside his room with his parents in order to check how Gregor is improving. Option four has to do with the psychical transformation of Grete from a girl to a woman, according to her parents’ opinion as a consequence of her growing.  

Options two and three are not correct since the first one does not mention the transformation that Grete suffered through the time. It only mentions the fact that Grete had been sleeping since the three gentlemen had move in and it does not have a connection with her transformation. On the other hand, option three has nothing to do with her transformation since the excerpt is talking about the fact that Mr. Samsa is chasing out the three gentlemen and one of them is asking why is she doing that and she then answers that this is what she wanted to say; after that, the three men just went out.
