They are both C they are the ones that need to be fixed....

Answer:

It is indeed option C for both questions.

Explanation:

In the first question, the mistake is letter C for lack of correct punctuation. The structure "like water and air" is an appositive, which means it is added to the sentence to offer more information about a noun - in this case, about "resource". An appositive should be framed by commas, and there is one comma missing. That's where letter C is and, therefore, the reason why it should be checked.

In the second question, the mistake is letter C for improper usage of the conjunction "but". "But" is a coordinating conjunction supposed to introduce an idea that opposes the idea previously presented. In this case, there is no reason to use it because the sentences do not oppose each other, but offer information of the same kind on the same subject instead.

The details the author establishes about Mathilde to set up the irony are "She is poor but is obsessed with being rich -- to be envied, to be charming, to..."

<h3>Who is Mathilde?</h3>

Mathilde Loisel is the main character in the short story "The Necklace," by Guy de Maupassant. She is not a bad person, but she does have a major flaw that will lead to the conflict and resolution of the story. Mathilde is not a humble or content woman. She has a good life, but is not wealthy, fancy, chic. And that bothers her tremendously.

Such a desire for expensive things and for admiration is what leads Mathilde to her poor fate. She borrows what she believes to be a real diamond necklace from a friend. Upon losing that necklace, she buys a new one and spends 10 years of her life working to pay for it. She loses the youth and beauty she has in the process. After all that time, she find out the necklace she lost was a fake one.

The irony is obvious - Mathilde's greed causes her demise, and even real rich people do not spend their money on such expensive things as a diamond necklace.
