What does timeless mean inf the following sentence?
Many old novels are timeless and still appeal to readers today.
without a specific time
The phrase "and still appeals to readers today" is a context clue. It gives an idea that the old novels are not tied to any time and if the readers read them today, they could still relate.
Hope I helped :)
The first two paragraphs show that even though she lost both parents at an early age, Jane Fairfax was raised with great joy and love. With that, we can say that option A is the correct answer.
The text you showed doesn't have the first two paragraphs, with the first 14 lines, but we can see that this text is a part of the book "Emma" written by Jane Austen.
Thus, when reading the first paragraphs of this passage, we can see that:
- The passage is featuring Miss Jane Fairfax.
- Her parents died when she was a little child and she was raised with her aunt, Mrs. Bates, who is very young.
- Although we are used to sad stories, the Jane Fairfax story is not like that.
- That's because the first paragraphs show how she was a very happy child in her aunt's care.
- That's because Jane's aunt loves her so much and raised her with great care and affection.
In this case, we can summarize these paragraphs, showing that despite losing her parents at a very young age, Jane was raised with joy, love, and affection, as option A shows.
