Question

What would the workers look like if seen from above the factory, according to the statement?

a) They would look like ants.
b) They would be invisible.
c) They would look like clock parts.
d) They would look like birds.

Answer 1

The correct answer is option c) They would look like clock parts.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, if workers were observed from above the factory, they would likely resemble clock parts. The passage describes how factory workers on assembly lines lose their connection with the finished product, much like individual parts of a clock have no apparent significance on their own but function within the larger machine. The comparison to clock parts emphasizes how the workers fit into the repetitive and mechanical nature of the assembly line, without a clear vision of the final product their labor contributes to.
