Question

question 5 of 10
which premise would best fit in a work of dystopian fiction?

a. could a robot - dominated government effectively run a human
society?

b. should human lives be extended using robotic organs or body
parts?

c. how can scientists effectively replicate soldiers to fight an alien
enemy?

d. could a robot properly care for a child physically and emotionally?

Explanation:

Dystopian fiction often explores oppressive, dehumanizing societal structures. A robot-dominated government directly aligns with this theme, as it implies a loss of human control and potential for systemic oppression—core elements of dystopian narratives. The other options focus on ethical questions about technology use (B, D) or survival against external threats (C), which are less central to dystopia’s critique of flawed social systems.

Answer:

A. Could a robot-dominated government effectively run a human society?
