Answer:

The Loisels are upset about losing the necklace because:

A. The necklace belongs to someone else and they feel obligated to

replace it.

Explanation:

This question is about the short story "The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant. Mathilde Loisel, the main character, is a woman of elegant tastes but little money. She borrows a fancy diamond necklace from a friend of hers to attend a party with her husband. On the way back home, she somehow loses the necklace. Since her husband does not earn a lot, and since they feel obligated to replace the lost necklace, they end up borrowing money. It takes the Loisels ten years to pay their debt off. Ironically, that is when Madame Loisel finds out the lost necklace was actually a fake one, worth much less than the real one she and her husband bought to replace it.

Which of these sentences uses quotation marks correctly?

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A is wrong because it has a period after, down when it should be a comma. The comma signals that that part of the sentence is what he is saying. He is also capitalized when it should be lower case. B is wrong because it has nothing after, down and nothing after said. C is wrong because again, there's nothing after down. The part option C did get right is the comma after said. D has all the commas in the right places and all the words are capitalized when they're supposed to.

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

This is an example of an idiom

Explanation:

An idiom is a saying that doesn't mean what it's literally saying

So basically what I'm saying is that the quote isn't telling you to count your lucky stars.

The literal meaning is to express thankfulness or gratitude for one's good luck while avoiding a bad situation.

densk [106]

My ideal home would be a home of uptopia with many acers of land. For riding dirt bikes, and seeing exotic animals. To achieve such a high caliber home I would have to succeed in online marketing. Using social media to my advantage to sell 10$ t-shirts for 50$ or more. I would have to sponsor friends and family's businesses to keep money in the circle. Home isn't quite home without friends or family. I would buy a ronin M by DJI. Camera's lenses. Greenscreen and softboxes. All affordable with a sold investment to a maximum of 2,500$. Because the Ronin M is 1,000 and the camera equipment is expensive, but the greenscreen and softbox lights is like 100$ for the largest greenscreen available, and 100$ for 3 or 4 lights. I would become a professional photographer, and vlogger. I will create a website using a domain name, and a hosting company to host my website and design the website to sponsor me and selected businesses and I will personally ship out products my self
