It would be a. "We the people of the United States ... do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

We can rule out c immediately, because it has dependent clauses standing on its own. B. can also be ruled out, because the clause in-between the hyphen does not read correctly. A. is correct grammatically, but D. is also grammatically correct and it explains it in a quick and understandable way.

Which of these best describes Madame Loisel?
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The option that best describes Madame Loisel is:

C. Madame Loisel changes from an idealistic dreamer to a hardworking woman who shows responsibility.

Explanation:

Madame Loisel is the main character in Guy de Maupassant's short story "The Diamond Necklace". <u>At the beginning of the story, Madame Loisel is a pretty woman who happens to be utterly discontented with her life. She has great taste for fine and rich things, but she is not wealthy. Even though she does live a comfortable life and does not have to work, she wishes things were different.</u>

One night, after a party, she loses a diamond necklace she had borrowed from a wealthy friend. Believing the necklace to be a real one, she buys another to replace it with her husband's help. They end up having to work extremely hard for ten years to pay for it. <u>Madame Loisel goes from being a dreamer to being a hardworking woman. She is no longer concerned with her appearance. Survival is more important now:</u>

<u>"[...] heavy, rough, harsh, like one of the poor. Her hair untended, her skirts askew, her hands red, her voice shrill...."</u>

In the end, the necklace she lost is revealed to have been a fake one.
