Question 19 (5 points) Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:
from Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
(1)One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on
his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The
bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest
of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
(2)"What's happened to me?" he thought. It wasn't a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between
its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table -Samsa was a travelling salesman - and above it there hung a
picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and
fur boa who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.
(3) Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the pane, which made him feel quite
sad. "How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense", he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he
was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn't get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he
always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn't have to look at the floundering
legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before.

What main conflict is revealed so far in this story? (5 points)

a. Gregor does not enjoy his job.

b. Gregor is having disturbing dreams.

с. Gregor has transformed into a bug.

d. Gregor cannot sleep

Read the excerpt from a supporting opinion of the supreme court’s ruling in plessy v. ferguson, 1896. laws permitting, and even requiring, their separation in places where they are liable to be brought into contact do not necessarily imply the inferiority of either race to the other, and have been generally, if not universally, recognized as within the competency of the state legislatures in the exercise of their police power. how does this relate to the premises of brown v. board of education? the brown case addresses whether state legislatures are equipped to judge the quality of education offered at segregated schools. the brown case addresses whether authorities believe that one race is inferior to another when creating public schools. the brown case addresses whether these laws inherently deny certain citizens equal protection under the law. the brown case addresses the legality of using police power to monitor public places separated by race.
