Answer 1

Answer:

B. He likes it and eats only the most rotten pieces.

Explanation:

In "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka, when Gregor wakes up he sees that there is some milk and bread for him to eat. Even though he liked milk before, he doesn't like it anymore. When Grete sees he hasn't touched the food, she brings kitchen leftovers for him to eat. He likes it and eats only the most rotten pieces leaving fresh fruits and vegetables untouched.
