How did Dahl use Mary's THOUGHTS to characterize her

English
1 answer:
a_sh-v [17]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Mary is carefully characterized from the opening lines of "Lamb to the Slaughter" as a woman whose entire life revolves around her husband. Even before her name is mentioned, it is clear that she has made the room warm and cozy and set out drinks and glasses in anticipation of his return. The first action she performs is to glance at the clock. Although Dahl says that she does this "without anxiety," his description makes it evident that she is waiting for the really important part of her day to begin. At a certain time, she begins to listen for the sounds of his car arriving. The rest of her calm, quiet existence is merely a preparation for the time she spends with Patrick.

What is the meaning of the foreign expression in bold? The Army Art Program began during World War I as a way to record history
postnew [5]

Answer and Explanation:

Since this question has no options, I will offer a general explanation of the foreign expression.

<u>The sentence we are analyzing here presents the French expression "carte blanche". Giving someone carte blanche means giving them total freedom to do something. For example: Mr. Johnson gave us carte blanche to choose the theme for our final paper.</u>

<u>In the passage, we are told "eight soldier-artists were given carte blanche". That means they were free to do whatever they chose to; they were free to use "any style or medium" they wanted.</u>
