a. gregors father sells all of their furniture.
b. grete sells her violin.
c. the family moves to a smaller apartment.
d. gregors mother takes in sewing projects.

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the plot of "The Metamorphosis". After Gregor's transformation, the family needs to earn money. Let's analyze each option:

• Option A: Gregor's father doesn't sell all furniture (Grete and mother decide on some furniture, but not all sold by father).
• Option B: Grete doesn't sell her violin; she dreams of music but doesn't sell it for money here.
• Option C: Moving to a smaller apartment reduces expenses, not earn money.
• Option D: Gregor's mother takes in sewing projects to earn money, which matches the plot.

Answer:

D. Gregor’s mother takes in sewing projects.
