In which of the following excerpts from "The Yellow Wall Paper" does author Charlotte Perkins Gilman seem to mock the romantic b

elief in the supernatural?
A) A colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity—but that would be asking too much of fate!
B) There is a delicious garden! I never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them.
C) The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smoldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight.
D) Then I peeled off all the paper I could reach standing on the floor. It sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it!

Answer:

The correct answer for the question: In which of the following excerpts from "The Yellow Wallpaper" does author Charlotte Perkins Gilman seem to mock the romantic belief in the supernatural, would be, excerpt A: A colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity- but that would be asking too much of fate!

Explanation:

In Romanticism, one of the main characteristics was the admiration of the supernatural, and even sometimes the magical worlds. However, when Realism and Naturalism arrived, all these notions about the supernatural, and the admiration for it changed entirely. In this work by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and which was published in 1892, the author herself turns the idea of the supernatural into something of a joke, especially in excerpt A, when she says: "I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity-but that would be asking too much of fate!". With this statement, what the author is saying is that the house did not even merit much admiration, and what to romantics would have seem as mysticism, to her it was plainly, and basically, a ghost story, if that.

An author makes choices about how to structure and pace events to achieve a purpose. In lines 59-84, Gregor suddenly starts to w
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

By showing the hectic scene of him getting up late, not hearing his alarm clock, and also bringing his family to his door shows or relays the need of urgency in his situation. The author Kafka successfully creates tension in that scene, making Gregor unable to think straight, while at the same time, still unaware of his transformation.

Explanation:

In Franz Kafka's "Metamorphosis", the story revolves around the transformation of the protagonist Gregor Samsa into a bug. The whole story deals with the new approach of his reality and his attempts to try to lead a normal life though it was impossible.

In lines 59- 84, the narrator showed him getting up with a start because the clock had already struck "<em>half past six and the hands were quietly moving forwards, it was even later than half past, more like quarter to seven</em>". Added to his late rising, his mother began calling him to wake up. This urgency in the scene creates tension to show how Gregor had to be in his office and working. He then made the whole family to try to breakdown the door when Gregor refused to open the door. This conflict further creates more tension within the whole family and shows the urgency of how things need to be get done. Bringing the whole family to his door made him even more anxious, which wasn't what he wanted to do. Rather, what he "<em>wanted to do was to get up in peace without being disturbed, to get dressed, and most of all to have his breakfast.</em>" Thus, contrary to his want and need of peace, the author poses a bustling, rather conflicting scene for him so as to lay emphasis on the need of urgency in the matter.
