For some people, global warming is a myth. For people familiar with the facts, it is no myth; it is hard truth that demands hard answers. Over the past 50 years or so, automobiles, factories, and power plants have poured many thousands of tons of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is what’s called a “greenhouse gas.” It traps the Sun’s radiation and increases the global temperature. During the past two decades, we have seen the hottest summers ever recorded. Also, the hottest summers have happened in the past five years. Unusual weather patterns have soaked some parts of the United States with rain. Meanwhile, the western states are fighting over water as lakes and rivers are drying up. Most shocking of all is the steady melting of the Arctic ice cap. Ice depths that were 300 feet are now closer to 100 feet. Ice has retreated northward into the Arctic Sea for hundreds of miles.

GWENDOLEN (Looking round.): Quite a well-kept garden this is, Miss Cardew. CECILY: So glad you like it, Miss Fairfax.
stiks02 [169]

1. I believe the correct answer is: social status.

 

     In these lines from the play “The Importance of Being Earnest”, written by Oscar Wild, Gwendolen Fairfax says that people who live in the country lack social status.

     Gwendelon is a big-city (London in this case), sophisticated woman who views the world with the shortsightedness of the aristocratic society of Victorian era, which Oscar Wilde tend to critic. Limited by her installed aristocratic norms, Gwendelon says that she can’t grasp the idea that someone of importance can live in the country (“how anybody manages to exist in the country, if anybody who is anybody does.”) as the country lacks the social status, which is reserved for the big cities.

 

2. I believe the correct answer is: morally debased.

 

     In these lines from the play “The Importance of Being Earnest”, written by Oscar Wild, Cecily indicates that people in the city are morally debased.

     Cecily Cardew is the foil character, contrast, of the Gwendelon Fairfox, which we can see in her protectiveness of the country life, both its setting and people. She replays to Gwendelons comments of the lack of social status in country life by calling people in the city “agricultural depressed”, meaning that their decrease in moral value spread like and illness, almost like an epidemic even.
