-David Wyllie, trans, The Metamorphosis
Why does Neuaroschel's transietion of The Metamorphosis refer to Gregors
parents as 'the mother and "the father?
OA Tocall attention to the importance of Gregor's parents to his life
OB. To remind readers of Gregors parents
OC. To show that Gregor's physical state is scaring his parents
OD To make Gregor seem less connected to his parents

Answer:

OD To make Gregor seem less connected to his parents.

Explanation:

Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" revolves around the transformation of Gregor Samsa into an insect, making him alienated and reclusive of his own family. Moreover, the story delves into the aloofness, alienation, change, and the importance of family relations in an individual's life.

As given in the question, the two translations of the same text make a different aspect of the story and its characters. While Joachim Neugroschel's translation addressed the parents using the article "the", David Wyllie's translation used the possessive pronoun "his" to refer to Gregor's parents. This difference in referring to the parents is that while Wyllie's version shows a close bond between the parents-son, Neugroschel presents a rather disconnected relationship between Gregor and his parents. He seems to address or mention the parents in such a way that they feel no connection to their son, who has changed.

This use of "the" for the parents instead of "his" seems to show the weak or rather strained connection between Gregor and his parents.  Thus, the correct answer is option D.

(1) For centuries, art scholars have studied the renowned works of Leonardo da Vinci, the Renaissance artist, pondering how he created three-dimensional figures with such depth on flat canvases. (2) If da Vinci did have exotropia, in which an eye turns outward, he would not have been the only artist in history with that condition.

(3) Christopher Tyler, a visual neuroscientist at City University of London, noticed a pattern in da Vinci’s portraits and in works depicting the great artist. (4) While few self-portraits of da Vinci exist, Tyler argues that many of da Vinci’s portraits reflect his appearance. (5) As the great artist himself said, the soul “guides the painter’s arm and makes him reproduce himself, since it appears to the soul that this is the best way to represent a human being.”

(6) To test his theory that da Vinci had exotropia, Tyler studied the eye alignments of the subjects of six pieces of art that purportedly depict the Renaissance artist himself, including da Vinci’s Vitruvian Man and Salvator Mundi and Andrea del Verrocchio’s sculpture David. (7) The results confirmed Tyler’s suspicions: da Vinci likely had exotropia, with one eye turning out at -10.3 degrees.

(8) Tyler’s findings, which he published in JAMA Ophthalmology, created a stir in both the art and science communities. (9) Only about 1 percent of the population has exotropia, yet previous studies have suggested that other famous artists—like Rembrandt, Picasso, and Degas—had it as well, which indicates that the eye condition was more common in centuries past than it is now. (10) Tyler believes that da Vinci’s condition was intermittent—that is, his eye drifted out of alignment when he was relaxed, but when he focused, it would realign. (11) If Tyler is right and da Vinci could control his exotropia, then the artist could switch from 2-D to 3-D vision, enhancing his ability to accurately capture three-dimensional figures on a two-dimensional canvas.

The writer is considering changing the passage to argue that Tyler does not have enough evidence to support the assertion that da Vinci had exotropia. The writer drafted the following thesis statement, which is intended to preview the line of reasoning the new passage would have.

Though it is true that Tyler studied six separate works of art, including such famous works as Vitruvian Man and Salvator Mundi, there is not enough evidence to prove that da Vinci suffered from exotropia.

Should the writer include the underlined portion of the thesis statement?
A Yes, because it helps remind readers of some famous da Vinci works.

B Yes, because it strengthens the thesis by conceding that the works Tyler studied are important ones.

C Yes, since it suggests that the writer is knowledgeable on the subject of da Vinci.

D No, because a thesis does not need to provide specifics of an argument or evidence to be a good preview.

E No, since it specifies what Tyler’s study included rather than what it failed to include.
