AHe is mute and unable to speak

BHe is overly talkative and dominating the conversation

CHe is shouting and expressing his frustrations loudly

DHe is singing and dancing joyfully

Answer:

A. He is mute and unable to speak

Read Explanation:

  • In Act 2 of Waiting for Godot, Lucky is mute and unable to speak, which is a significant change from Act 1, where he delivers a long, disjointed speech.

  • In Act 1, Lucky is physically and mentally abused by Pozzo, and his speech is chaotic and filled with nonsensical words.

  • However, in Act 2, Lucky's silence emphasizes his further degradation and loss of autonomy.

  • He has become more passive and dependent, as he no longer has a voice to express himself.
