question 6 of 10
which theme best represents bradburys story the pedestrian?
a. human interaction is only needed on a limited basis because too much will cause societal problems.
b. technology is useful in deterring neighborhood crime.
c. computers will take over society if society continues to try to make them more lifelike.
d. humans will lose touch with one another if they allow technology to dominate their lives.

Explanation:

In "The Pedestrian", Ray Bradbury portrays a future where technology has made people isolated in their homes, reducing human - to - human interaction. Option D reflects this theme of humans losing touch with one another due to technology's dominance. Option A is contrary to the story's message as it emphasizes the importance of human connection, not its limited need. Option B is not the main theme as crime deterrence by technology is not the focus. Option C about computers taking over society due to making them lifelike is not the central theme.

Answer:

D. Humans will lose touch with one another if they allow technology to dominate their lives.
