Answer:

B. The novel suggests that technology can create a living creature from a dead body.

Explanation:

Remember that science fiction is characterized by having a content that is based in science. Remeber that although science theories are used or mentioned they are not followed in a rigorous way. The word <em>fiction </em>gives us a clue, the events and things that technology permits are created by the author's imagination. Some elements described or used can be possible according to actual science. In Frankestein, the doctor uses electricity, and stuff that resembles science to give life to dead bodies, in real life this doesn't work.

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

This is a passage from a book<em> Black Girl</em> which is written by Ousmane Sembène.  The story follows a young Senegalese girl who started to work for a rich French family in Antibes. She expected to be a nanny and have a good life, but it turned out that they wanted her as a servant and treated her very harsh.

Answer A is not true, because Madame is not resentful, she wanted help and she got it.

Answer B - although she might not much about France we can not conclude that from this passage

So, she gives her high salary in purpose to bribe her into coming to France, so she could have free time.
