Read the passage from "Harrison Bergeron," in which George's assigned handicap causes him to suffer. [George] began to think glimmeringly about his abnormal son who was now in jail, about Harrison, but a twenty-one-gun salute in his head stopped that.
"Boy!" said Hazel, "that was a doozy, wasn't it?"

It was such a doozy that George was white and trembling, and tears stood on the rims of his red eyes. Two of the eight ballerinas had collapsed to the studio floor, were holding their temples.

From the passage, a reader could infer that the transmitter in George's ear prevents him from thinking clearly.

How does the passage support this inference?

A. It hints that the transmitter will sound off only if George thinks unacceptable thoughts.
B. It reveals how other people in the world have the same transmitters as George.
C. It provides a description of the loud noises blocking George's thoughts.
D. It shows how Hazel has become used to George's pained expressions.

Which sentences from part 1 of the call of the wild would best serve as evidence of the theme "sometimes survival depends on knowing when not to fight"? buck had accepted the rope with quiet dignity. to be sure, it was an unwonted performance: but he had learned to trust in men he knew, and to give them credit for a wisdom that outreached his own. he had merely intimated his displeasure, in his pride believing that to intimate was to command. but to his surprise the rope tightened around his neck, shutting off his breath. he saw, once for all, that he stood no chance against a man with a club. he had learned the lesson, and in all his after life he never forgot it. that had given them an unfair advantage; but now that it was off, he would show them. they would never get another rope around his neck.
