Which of the themes of Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" is illustrated by this passage? Paragraph 36: The most singular effect of their gayety was an impulse to mock the infirmity and decrepitude of which they had so lately been the victims. A. Gayety produces an impulse to mock. B. It is a great release to look back on our problems happily C It is human nature to mock or make light of problems we have been delivered from
Answer:
C. It is human nature to mock or make light of problems we have been delivered from.
Explanation:
Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" revolves around the doctor in his search for the fountain of youth. The story delves into themes of mortality, reformation, reality, mystery, etc.
Dr. Heidegger had invited four of his friends to try out his "fountain of youth" and see if it works. Once the water had been consumed by the four, they began to change, aging backward. What was once old and saggy skin, turned into youthful-looking individuals. And once they became youthful, they began to mock their "old-fashioned attire--the wide-skirted coats and flapped waistcoats of the young men, and the ancient cap and gown of the blooming girl." The statement that "[the] singular effect of their gayety was an impulse to mock the infirmity and decrepitude of which they had so lately been the victims" seems to suggest that their gaiety over their transformation only resulted in them mocking their old selves' fashion choices.
This shows that human nature is prone to make fun of or criticize the problems that one has just gone through.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.

The man rose from his stool at a workbench strewn with violin pieces and woodworking tools. Beneath his apron, he wore a starched white
shirt and a necktie.
"I called yesterday about having my violin appraised." He said nothing. "I have it here," I said, offering it like a gift to royalty.
His eyes passed over my violin, met mine, and then went back to the violin.
"So you want me to tell you what the violin is worth?" he said not looking up. I nodded, thinking that we had established that yesterday. My
eyes scanned the walls where hung probably fifty violins in a variety of sizes. I noted the glass case with the locks. Those had to be the quality
instruments. "Tell me what you know of this violin."
I told him that it had been my grandfather's, that he had brought it to this country from Italy, that he had supported his family playing for
country dances in Vermont.
The man set the violin down on a towel, breathed deeply. "So is this country dance fiddle for sale?"
Which is the best analysis of the craftsman?
O 1. His professional attitude identifies him as the protagonist.
O 2. His curiosity over the violin identifies him as the protagonist.
Ο Ο Ο Ο
3. His disregard for the violin identifies him as the antagonist.

Why does Juan censor his own letter "without regret"? How is his final action as a censor an example of irony, or a seeming contradiction? How does this ending illustrate Valenzuela's point of view about the political situation in Argentina? Support your response with evidence from the text.
Answer and Explanation:
1. He censors his own letter because he has been immensely involved in the censor's work, going so far as to override his own wishes, so that the government's wishes are fulfilled.
2. This is an example of irony and contradiction, because Juan decided to accept the job as a censor, to prevent the letters he sends from being censored, but he ends up doing exactly the opposite.
3. This reinforces the idea that the political situation in Argentina was very oppressive and authoritarian, going so far as to change the thinking of citizens who, instead of fighting it, were completely manipulated, to the point of helping.
