"Lia, haven't you been able to find any advantages to your new body?"
"That had been my "homework" from the other day: design a pop-up for the download process, complete with catchy slogan, and a list of fabulous advantages available to every download recipient. Sascha thought it would tap into my creativity skills." Chapter 4 Page 57

Lia was still trying to get accustomed to her new body, but I think they pressure her to much. By saying that they pressure her to much I mean the doctors or others tell her move your arm or leg, or speak, she is still traumatized from the accident she had and that sometimes can't quite remember of. She is not able to speak or move yet, she cannot believe this is happening to her.
In this passage Sascha is asking Lia these questions because she wants to know if Lia still seems to have a little bit of creativity skills or options to be again who she was but now in a different body. Is hard for Lia to be accustomed because maybe experiences and memories are still capture within,but Lia already knew her body and how it felt to be her. All Lia wants is to be who she was before, with no arms or legs, but she wanted to be the same person. It was not possible because her body was dead, but Lia herself was still alive. Meaning that is great to still live and be human and be grateful that life is still within yourself and keep living in the present and in the future.
I think the people that only have one leg or no arm are the most grateful people that could exist because they don't complain like the healthy people do. Lia was in a different body, but she should be grateful that she did not die and that the doctors did everything to save her and transfer her into a new body,but alive.
The technique that is used to be able to write this passage is the technique of symbolism (the new body) because everything that surrounds Lia is the new body, to get accustomed to it and live with it for the rest of her life. For now she is still a little traumatized, but after knowing that she is still alive she is going to understand that with a new body and the same experiences and memories she can still be the Lia she was before.
