Do you think people's expectations and treatment of Harrison and his eventual actions could be considered a self-fulfilling prophecy? Why or why not?
I have found this question online. It refers to the short story "Harrison Bergeron" by Kurt Vonnegut.
Answer and Explanation:
Yes, I believe people's expectations and treatment of Harrison and his eventual actions could be considered a self-fulfilling prophecy.
A self-fulfilling prophecy is a result of the Pygmalion effect theory, which claims we are influenced by other people's expectations of us. When we begin to believe what others think of us to be the truth, we change our behavior in accordance to it. We end up fulfilling the prophecies others have made about us, that is, we confirm their expectations.
That is what Harrison, the main character, does. In the story, the American government has decided to promote equality in a most absurd manner. People who are considered beautiful or intelligent, for instance, are forced to wear handicaps so that others will not feel inferior. Harrison is only 14 years old, and he is forced to wear loads of handicaps, not only to make him less handsome and strong, but also to make him less intelligent. For that reason, Harrison begins to see himself as truly superior to others. What the government does to him leads him to believe he is special, and that the world deserves to see that.
Harrison escapes from jail, appears before cameras, removes his own handicaps, and dances with a ballerina. Both are shot dead by a government official. If Harrison were truly superior in intelligence, he would most likely not have done that, since he knew he would be breaking the law and the outcome was quite obvious. It was because he was treated as intelligent, not because he was truly intelligent, that Harrison did what he did and was killed for it.

Explanation:
Read the following paragraph from the passage "Why We Buy What We Buy." Twitchell says we have so many products and so much advertising, they actually have helped shape the way we live. For instance, we have a two-day weekend in part because the Industrial Revolution produced so many products that people needed more time for shopping. And so workers got Saturday off. Says Twitchell: "It's become shopping day at the mall." How does the paragraph help contribute to the overall idea that the need to sell products has affected daily life in America? A: It tells how advertising has encouraged people to spend more than they save. B: It explains that companies do most of their advertising on weekends when families are together to shop. C: It explains how the work week was shortened to give people more time to shop.D: It suggests that the need to sell more products led to the development of malls where people now socialize.
Answer:
C: it explains how the week was shortened to give people more time to shop.
The paragraph helps contribute to the idea of selling goods affected daily life in America:
C). It explains how the workweek...shortened...shop.
Daily life in America
The passage displays that the requirement of selling goods has caused a major and negative impact on the regular life of Americans.
This is demonstrated through the shortening of the working week and marking Saturday as the non-working day so that people receive adequate time to shop from the plenty of options available there.
Thus, option C is the correct answer.

Part B
Read this excerpt from the article.
There's a relationship between low self-esteem and negative portrayals of racial groups. There's also an association between poor self-esteem and the lack of portrayals of a particular group. Others have found that media misrepresentations of ethnic groups can cause confusion about aspects of their identity among children of these groups.
Does the excerpt provide evidence that effectively supports the claim identified in Part A? (part A was posted on my account already :))
A-Yes, because it explains how a lack of diversity in media can have negative emotional effects on children.
B-Yes, because it describes the positive effects of diversity in movies on children.
C-No, because it fails to provide examples of media misrepresentation.
D-No, because it only describes the correlation between media representations and children, rather than all populations.

Which revision to the last sentence best concludes this story and reflects on
the significance of the experience?
After Darrin and I climbed out of the pond, we were soaked and
terrified of getting in trouble. Then our chaperone, Mr. Curtis, arrived.
He shook his head at the mess we'd gotten ourselves into. I looked
over at Darrin, who was covered in pond grass and mud, and we
braced ourselves for a lecture. But a smile took over Mr. Curtis's face,
and he took out his camera, saying, "Smile, you two. This is a moment
you won't want to forget!" So even though we were wet, we were really
relieved that we weren't in trouble.
A. Now when I think of that trip, I am reminded that the best
memories are often the ones we didn't plan.
B. That's when I realized that even when you fall in a pond, you will
eventually get dried off, and your life will probably continue without
