    1. So, in the end, above ground you must have

    the Haves, pursuing pleasure and comfort and beauty,

    and below ground the Have-nots,

    the Workers getting continually adapted

    to the conditions of their labour. - the theme is society and class, because it talks about various workers and their responsibilities

    2. We improve our favourite plants and

    animals-and how few they are-gradually

    by selective breeding; now a new and better peach,

    now a seedless grape, now a sweeter and larger flower,

    now a more convenient breed of cattle. - the theme is humankind and nature, and our interaction with it and its modification to suit our needs

    3. Plainly, this second species of Man was subterranean.

    There were three circumstances in particular

    which made me think that its rare emergence

    above ground was the outcome of a long-continued

    underground habit. In the first place,

    there was the bleached look common

    in most animals that live largely

    in the dark-the white fish of the Kentucky caves, for instance - the theme is evolution, and how both animals and humans evolved and changed over time
