The two excerpts that best reflect Gregor's isolated condition after his transformation are:

1. 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.

2. 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 excerpts are taken from 'The Metamorphosis' by Franz Kafka. The above two excerpts reflect how Gregor's isolated condition was after he transformed.

For instance, he used to spend time in his dark room, watching things for hours without him being watched by anyone else. Also, he never liked communicating with any of his family members.

jeez la wheeze! i just checked other people who had the same question as you and both had terrible answers.

i hope i could be a little bit of a though!

hmm, lets see here. okay! so, i don't know the passages exactly since i haven't taken that quiz before, but! i will try to the best i can.

if you need on what igbo means, ill give you a hand.

igbo means a member of a people of southeastern nigeria.

so, they're asking you, "what passage uses igbo words or phrases and in at least 100 words, identify the kinds of context clues the author uses to hint at the words' meaning."

so basically, don't stress or over look this.

look closely at the passages and see if you can spot any of those hints! it doesn't have to be all, remember, its a quiz! no right or wrong answers.

the teachers are always there to and if you are struggling on this topic they will notice it in your score on the quiz and you.

(; i do hope this is useful to you!     < 3
