Question

1. what two aspects of the horror story frankenstein are also seen in modern science fiction? it includes scenes that cause the reader to sympathize with the monster. it describes a grotesque creature who is feared and shunned by his maker. it features a character who goes beyond the limits of human understanding. it focuses on the moral and ethical questions surrounding scientific advances.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option in the context of Frankenstein and modern science fiction:

• Option 1: Sympathy for the monster is more of a character - audience relation and not a core aspect shared with modern sci - fi's typical themes.
• Option 2: A grotesque creature feared by its maker is a common trope in Frankenstein but modern sci - fi often deals with more complex ethical/scientific boundary themes rather than just a shunned creature.
• Option 3: Frankenstein's Victor goes beyond human understanding in creating life, and modern sci - fi often has characters pushing scientific boundaries (like AI, genetic engineering), so this is a shared aspect.
• Option 4: Frankenstein deals with moral/ethical questions of creating life, and modern sci - fi (e.g., AI ethics, cloning) also focuses on such questions around scientific advances, so this is a shared aspect.

Answer:

C. It features a character who goes beyond the limits of human understanding.
D. It focuses on the moral and ethical questions surrounding scientific advances.
