Click to read the passage from "the metamorphosis," by franz kafka. then answer the question. in this passage, the narrator turns into a real bug. he is not imagining it. which of the following most the reader understand that the character has actually turned into a bug? a. the use of the word "verminous" b. the fact that he finds the room too small c. the details of the character's many legs d. the everyday details of the room

In the first paragraph of The Metamorphosis, Kafka tells his reader that his main character—Gregor Samsa—has become a giant verminous bug. At the begining Gregor thinks is just a dream but then he realizes that it is real.

In the firts chapter Gregor wakes up to find himself transformed into a giant insect. After examining his new physiology, complete with numerous thin legs, a hard back, and a segmented belly, he wonders only momentarily what has happened to him. His attention is quickly distracted as he observes his room, noting its small size and seeing on the wall a picture of a woman he had clipped out of a magazine and framed. Wanting to go back to sleep, Gregor realizes that he cannot turn over on his side, which is the only position he can sleep in. (Taken for gradesaver.com)

As we can see in the text the details about how Gregor has changed physically is the part that helps us the most to understand the what he is feeling and seeing is a reality. The word "verminous" and the size of the room can be used as metaphor about sadness and sickness but the physical description and its feeling are way too real. The answer is C.The details of the character's many legs

If my answer helped you please give me 5 stars and better answer. Thank you.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
