Question 41 • PBCSD_Grade_Forgiveness_1001370_English 3_S2_2015

Which sentence best describes George Bergeron’s characterization in "Harrison Bergeron"?

Answer
A
He is a static character, because he has become dehumanized by government controls.
B
He is a dynamic character, because he becomes angry with the police for arresting his son.
C
He is a static character, because he has only average intelligence.
D
He is a dynamic character, because he attempts to remove his handicap bag.

Explanation

A static character does not undergo a meaningful change during the story. George remains obedient to the government’s handicapping system and does not significantly change in response to his son’s death; his limited ability to think deeply reflects how the controls have dehumanized him. His momentary sadness or attempts to remember Harrison do not make him a dynamic character.
