Isolation is a major theme in Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis. Which TWO excerpts best reflect Gregor's isolated condition after his transformation? He got into the habit of closely watching it for one or two hours before it was opened and then, lying in the darkness of his room where he could not be seen from the living
room, he could watch the family in the light of the dinner table and listen to their conversation--with everyone's permission, in a way, and thus quite differently from before.
All of them were usually very quiet nowadays. Soon after dinner, his father yould go to sleep in his chair; his mother and sister would urge each other to be quiet; his
mother, bent deeply under the lamp, would sew fancy underwear for a fashion shop; his sister, who had taken a sales job, learned shorthand and French in the evenings so
that she might be able to get a better position later on.;
Gregor never responded to being spoken to in that way, but just remained where he was without moving as if the door had never even been opened. If only they had told
this charwoman to clean up his room every day instead of letting her disturb him for no reason whenever she felt like it!
The woman most likely meant to fetch the things back out again when she had time and the opportunity, or to throw everything out in one CO but what actually happened
was that they were left where they landed when they had first been thrown unless Gregor made his way through the junk and moved it somewhere else,

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmith’s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near by—it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience and—he knew not why—apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
