Question 2

You're in a US theatre just after WW II, and you're looking on a stage that is much simpler that you're accustomed to seeing.
 
  Rather than the usual detailed scenery, you're seeing a simplified setting that is suggestive rather than literal, one with several levels, partial walls, and a large piece of sculpture upstage center, a piece that suggests an angel, or perhaps an abstract sculpture, on which light plays continuously through the evening, changing color, intensity, angle. You are almost certainly at a production under the direct influence of: a. Appia and Craig
  b. Ibsen
  c. New Stagecraft
  d. Theatre of Cruelty
  e. Both a and c

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
