Question 1: Describe how the people in the cave are situated in Plato’s parable. Why can’t they move their legs or necks to take a look around? What is the only thing they are capable of seeing? What is their only source of light. Answer: There are prisoners who have lived their entire lives chained inside a cave.

  Where did I come from? My family was quite huge and complicated. I have two brothers and five sisters, making up my seven siblings.
