Answer:

Disillusionment is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Modernism was a movement during the early 20th Century and it took many values and situations from industrial life. It was also the crossroad between art techniques from 19th Century and new imagery that belonged to the 1900s.

In the excerpt we can see disillusionment after Roger realizes nobody knows or cares about Dan. The semantic field is also related to this feeling through the words "giddy" "terrible time" "stormed out". We can also understand that the character feels lonely, specially at the very end when the narrator says "nobody noticed" after he had left the place.

I think that the problem Henry has raised is a major ________ for our society today.
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

I agree with you that issue is best; it is a good parallel with problem.  

A problem might be a subject for discussion, but we are not likely to say it is a subject for society.  

It is difficult to see how a problem could be a theme for society. If there is a repeated or underlying subject of discussions we might call it a theme:

If there was an underlying theme it was this: "The problem is we don't have any money". (Source: Seattle Post Intelligencer (blog) - Mar 24, 2010)

​

Points are likely to be assertions, not questions to resolve, which is what problems are. We aren't likely to say "a point for our society today", unless we say what the society is to do with it. A person could say "[The fact that education is necessary for progress] is a point for our society to consider," although there would be better ways to express the idea.
