From the short story Bartleby the scrivener:
PART A: How does the narrator’s description of his office in paragraph 3 function in the
context of the story as a whole?
A.
It suggests the narrator’s unawareness of the way others in the office might
show their working environment.
B.
It reveals a negative aspect of the narrator’s personality because the other
scriveners refuse to occupy the same office as the narrator.
C.
It illustrates that the other scriveners, despite being in the same predicament as
Bartleby, exhibit no sympathy for Bartleby.
D.
It highlights the contrast between Bartleby’s comfortable working environment
and his negative attitude toward work.
I was thinking the answer might be d?
