This question is incomplete, here´s the complete question.
Read Slaughterhouse-Five, by Kurt Vonnegut.
During the party for Billy and Valencia’s eighteenth wedding anniversary, Billy is greatly upset by the barbershop quartet (219-30; 172-80 in the shorter edition). Summarize what happens to him in this moment and why. What do you think Vonnegut is saying about the nature of memory in this section of the book (and indeed throughout the book)?
Answer:
The barbershop quartet reminds Billy of the German officers when they saw the destruction caused by the bombing of Dresden. Billy breaks down and realizes he has some "big secret" inside. Vonnegut´s ideas about the nature of memory appear in Billy´s suppressing his emotion during the war, to end up having his later civilian life shape by what happened there.
Explanation:
Traumatized by the horrors of war, Billy´s memory constantly takes him into vivid flashbacks, showing that he hasn´t truly processed what he has gone through.
COUNTER ARGUMENT: People are quite able of identifying the difference between a young child and an adult, so a uniform doesn't make a difference. They are also very boring.
RESPONSE: Some people are more developed in there younger years so appear more mature and older than they are. Yes uniform can be boring however it's there to keep you safe and not for your enjoyment.
When listening at work you can become a better employee because you are aware of everything for one. But also because listening to others in general is respectful to do. So for example one of your employees needs someone to fill in for them and you are available but you weren't listening that means they have to go to work or find another active listening employee and you get less money.

Answer:
D. "The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old
rag mats."
Explanation:
Dystopian means a bad future. It is like the Hunger Games or Terminator, where the world has gone a dark path. Bad things are happening in the future that are much worse than they are now. Let's go over the answers.
A. This is totally an example of a dystopian future. You can never turn of the tv completely. It's always on, always there.
B. This is absolutely an example of a dystopian future. This thing, Big Brother, is watching you. If you are always being watched, that is a terrible future. No control, no freedom.
C. This answer goes hand in hand with A. The TV never shuts off, and there is something suspicious about it. This character, Winston, doesn't even feel safe with his back to the TV. The word "revealing" suggests that someone or something could see him through the TV, as if he were revealed and being watched. This is a dystopia.
D. Now, this answer isn't really a dystopia. A bad smell isn't necessarily a future that went down a dark path. The hallway just smells bad. This doesn't match up to A: the TV is always on, B: you are always being watched, and C: the TV is always watching you. The answer is D.
As you may know, third person will use third person pronouns such as he, she, it, and they. When a story has a narration in the third person, the narrator will be talking about other people. First person narration is when the narrator speaks about himself or herself, and second person narration is when the narrator is speaking directly to the readers or someone in the story, which is indicated by the use of the pronoun “you.” That said, there are two types of third person—third person limited and third person omniscient. Third person limited is when the narrator knows the thoughts of just a single character which is usually the main character. Third person omniscient is when the narrator knows the thoughts of all the characters and pretty much everything about everything--all situations.
