Question

a student rewrites a myth using a modern city setting and slang - filled dialogue. what should the student focus on to make sure the adaptation still honors the original myth’s message? keep the original theme and use new language and setting to express it in a modern way. focus mostly on updating the vocabulary, not the message. use the original setting but change the theme to make it more exciting. keep the plot the same but remove the original message so it fits modern humor. question 7 5 poin

Explanation:

To honor the original myth’s message in an adaptation, the core theme (the central idea/message) must be preserved. Changing the setting and language (like using a modern city and slang) is for modernizing the delivery, but the theme (message) should stay. The other options either ignore the theme (focus on vocabulary only), change the theme (use original setting but change theme), or remove the original message (keep plot but remove message), which go against honoring the original message.

Answer:

A. Keep the original theme and use new language and setting to express it in a modern way.
