It appears that in aristocratic society, a women's success is through her offspring. In this passage, she beings her son which is expected to be the center of attention. Other's admire him, yet he's shy and his presence wasn't as effective as the mother had thought. The author hints at this mentioning that people couldn't figure out who the son takes after, his mother or father...possibly implying that he was reserved instead of being outgoing as a child is expected to be.

For 5 points, this is all I'm going to write. You can fill in the rest to complete 150 words.

Through the stories of love and frustration and the daily life of the Dashwood sisters, Jane Austen criticizes the society of her time in a rather subtle way. Bearing in mind that women could not work at that time and that the only way to get what was considered success came through marriage and motherhood. In this excerpt, Austen shows how the social conversation of women at that time was about their children, because that was the only success and social ascension that women could aim for.

How does the narrator’s point of view influence how the events are described in the passage?

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

C. The narrator feels shame about what happened but still tries to tell the story in a truthful way.

Explanation:

According to a different source, this question refers to the text "The Man in the Well" by Ira Sher. In this story, we learn about a group of children who find a man in a well, but decide not to help him, and instead, they tease him for days. The narrator tells the story as an adult, and he gives us several hints of the fact that he is embarrassed, such as the fact that he will never go close to the well again. Despite this embarrassment, the author succeeds in telling the story in a truthful way.
