Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Modern tragicomedy captures the simultaneous anguish and joy of human existence today. Whereas in previous eras, an entire society might believe that the gods control fate or that a better life awaits us in the hereafter, the events of the twentieth century, such as World War I and II, the Holocaust, and the atom bomb, seemed to confirm that dark irrational forces were in control of a godless world. Modern tragicomic plays, therefore, depict a senseless world where human beings could no longer communicate because they were surrounded by a void of meaninglessness.
