Question

1 one morning, as gregor samsa was waking up from anxious dreams, he discovered that in bed he had been changed into a monstrous verminous bug. he lay on his armour - hard back and saw, as he lifted his head up a little, his brown, arched abdomen divided up into rigid bow - like sections. from this height the blanket, just about ready to slide off completely, could hardly stay in place. his numerous legs, pitifully thin in comparison to the rest of his circumference, flickered helplessly before his eyes. 2 whats happened to me, he thought. it was no dream. his room, a proper room for a human being, only somewhat too small, lay quietly between the four well - known walls. above the table, on which an unpacked collection of sample cloth goods was spread out (samsa was a traveling salesman), there was the picture which he had cut out of an illustrated magazine a little while ago and set in a pretty gilt frame. it was a picture of a woman with a fur hat and a fur boa. she sat erect there, lifting up in the direction of the viewer a solid fur muff into which her entire forearm disappeared. 3 gregors glance then turned to the window. the dreary weather (the rain drops were falling audibly down on the metal window ledge) made him quite melancholy. why dont i keep sleeping for a little while longer and forget all this foolishness, he thought. but this was entirely impractical, for he was used to sleeping on his right side, and in his present state he couldnt get himself into this position. no matter how hard he threw himself onto his right side, he always rolled again onto his back. he must have tried it a hundred times, closing his eyes, so that he would not have to see the wriggling legs, and 1 in paragraph 4, the description of gregors work day in, day out on the road strongly suggests that— he finds his job exhausting and joyless he values his job for his family he is preparing to ask for a promotion he considers it a temporary obligation clear all

Explanation:

"Day in, day out on the road" implies a repetitive and tiring work - routine. This suggests that Gregor finds his job exhausting and joyless. There is no indication in the text about his family values, his intention for promotion, or considering the job a temporary obligation.

Answer:

he finds his job exhausting and joyless
