It is likely that Tom picks Myrtle because he thinks she will be an easy woman to control. She is not wealthy, powerful, or socially connected, so she doesn't pose much of a threat to him. Myrtle also readily accepts Tom's fabricated story about being unable to divorce Daisy because "she's a Catholic."
It has been a long time since I have read this book but I would say the moral of the Mirror of Erised is to not dwell on the past. To not focus on what you do not have and instead to focus on what you do have and make the most of it. Harry was so intrigued by seeing his family in the mirror that he no longer accepted that he was an orphan and Dum bledore had to put an end to it. Instead of dwelling on desires, make the most of what you already have.
Hope this helps! If you need any more help or further explanation just let me know! :)
Jane is a prototype of a sweet, innocent, romantic girl who waits for her prince to come and take her into the sunset. In a way, this is what a girl was supposed to be in the harsh Victorian society. She should exhibit a sweet, angelic nature. On the other hand, Elizabeth is a strong willed individual, who has her own persuasions - or at least aspires to them. She is not a passive observer, but tries to build her own life. Being a complicated person herself, she doesn't readily trust what people say or do. That's why she eventually falls in love with Mr. Darcy, even though he has been repulsive from the very beginning of the novel. But even though in love, she isn't blind; she realizes that they are compatible souls, and that is the main reason she marries him.
Yes you did!
Does this answer your question?
