Hi there!
For the<u> FIRST question</u>, the answer you are looking for is option D. His attempts to make a name for himself through a display of material wealth.
In "Another Evening at the Club," the gifts of jewellery from Abboud Bey most likely represent his attempts to make a name for himself through a display of material wealth. The manner by which individuals set up veneers and deceive conceal their own blemishes and mix-ups from the general public is one of the subjects of "Another Evening at the club".
The answer to your <u>SECOND question</u> is option C.
The quote that best supports the response selected in the first question is "On her wedding night, as he put a diamond bracelet round her wrist, he had reminded her that she was marrying someone with a brilliant career in front of him and that one of the most important things in life was the opinion of others, particularly one's equals and seniors."
Hope this helps!
