They made the question at the end turn into the front. Sorry I couldn't make anything specific
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. <u>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.</u> 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.
The only sentence that makes the most sense would be D) Neither Carla nor Tim plays in the marching band.
The paragraph that best describes the arguement is this one:
<span>And of course, "times have changed", and new generations bring new morals and values. But is theis generation really doing theat, or taking theem away? Being a part of theis current generation, I have experienced first hand thee theings theat go on. Teens are becoming more involved in drinking alcohol and smoking. In fact, 72% of teens drink alcohol multiple times before graduating high school, and even worse, 37% tried it by thee 8the grade. And, 44% of teens have tried cigarettes by thee end of high school. Is it theat "following thee crowd makes you cool" making theese statistics dangerously high? Or is it because of thee message thee media of today sends? Music revolves around drugs, drinking, partying all night, etc. Movies and TV shows glorify being arrested and drinking/smoking. Every four in five teens arrested are also high or drunk at thee time. Is theis thee society theat we want? </span>
