Answer:

b) “He threw over her shoulders the wraps he had brought, the modest wraps of common life, the poverty of which contrasted with the elegance of the ball dress.”

Explanation:

This is the sentence that best shows the difference between Madame Loisel and the other guests at the ball. In this sentence, it is clear that Madame Loisel is clearly not as wealthy as she would like to be. We learn that her husband tries to comfort her as she is crying, and to do so, he covers her shoulders in wraps that he had brought. However, the wraps are very modest because the two do not have a lot of money, and this contrasts with the dress Madame Loisel wore in order to appear richer.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>C. "She no longer had the necklace around her neck!” </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Loisel is not happy woman because she believes that she belongs to het low class lifestyle that is not worthy of her standards. She has been imagining herself living in a posh house with all the luxuries in the world even though she still lives an ordinary lie. When her husband brought an invitation for a party, Loisel is adamant because she says she does not have fancy clothes to wear to the party. Mr. Loisel then offers to buy her clothes from his savings and she borrows the jewelry that led to her downfall.

Gelneren [198K]
The correct answer is the second option - <span>to occur unexpectedly and have destructive or harmful effects.
</span>Here, the word struck is just a past form of the verb to strike, meaning to happen unexpectedly and have dire consequences, like an earthquake can hit California, in this case. The final definition is a noun, and does not fit in the context of the original sentence.
