Question

Choose all the statements that accurately describe Madame Loisel's point of view as it is expressed in this passage.

Answer 1

Answer:

Madame Loisel dreams of a life of elegance, wealth and ease.

Madame Loisel is often extremely jealous of others who often have more wealth than she does.

Explanation:

Mathilde Loisel is a character in the story entitled, "The Necklace." Her personality in the story is clearly defined by her greed, pride and love for material things.

She loves beautiful and expensive things, which for her, are the only ones that could make her happy. This is the reason why she dreams of a life of elegance, wealth and ease. Once she gets what she wants, she thinks again about the other material things that she doesn't have. This makes her extremely jealous of others who often have more wealth than she does. She was never satisfied.

Unfortunately, she wasn't born wealthy and she married a poor clerk who couldn't give her everything she wanted.
