Read the excerpt from part one of Trifles. COUNTY ATTORNEY. How did she seem to feel about you coming? HALE. Why, I don’t think

she minded—one way or the other. She didn’t pay much attention. I said, “How do, Mrs. Wright, it’s cold, ain’t it?” And she said, “Is it?”—and went on kind of pleating at her apron. . . . And then she—laughed. I guess you would call it a laugh. How does this dialogue further develop the idea that Mrs. Wright may have had a motive for killing her husband?

Answer:

It suggests that she did not care about his death.

Explanation:

Mrs. Wright, a character in the play <em>Trifles, </em>kills her husband because of her loneliness. The police and her neighbors come to her house to investigate. Mrs. Hale, when asked about how Mrs. Wright behaved, says that she laughed after killing her husband.

It would seem based on this that Mrs. Wright didn't feel anything bad about her husband's death. She experienced severe loneliness and depression in her small-town, rural life, that she didn't see another escape other than murdering her own husband. Even though the husband did not treat her badly, per se, she still felt the need to get rid of him and regain her freedom.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!! WILL MARK BRAINLEST ANSWER

Answer:

1.Considering it was written in a situation so infused with racial issues, the “Letter from Birmingham Jail” is often strangely divorced from explicitly racial issues. Obviously, Dr. King cannot avoid the topic, but much of his argument, especially in the letter’s first half, is presented in universalist terms and through abstractions like “justice” and the interrelatedness of man. He argues that the clergymen, and his larger audience, should support his cause not because the victims are black but because it is the right thing to do. However, this passionate but restrained argument ultimately sets the stage for a declaration of what scholar Jonathan Rieder calls “a proclamation of black self-sufficiency” (94). Once he establishes the definitions of justice and morality, Dr. King argues that the black man will succeed with or without the help of white moderates because they operate with the just ideals of both secular America and divine guidance. Further, he implicitly suggests that by continuing to facilitate the oppression of the black man through moderation, his audience is operating in sin and will ultimately be on the losing side.

2.One recurring idea that supports Dr. King’s arguments is that group mentality supports and enables immorality, and that the individual must therefore act for justice even when the group does not share that goal. He makes this point explicitly in the early part of the “Letter.” This argument supports his defense of civil disobedience, allows him to criticize the church for supporting the status quo rather than empowering crusaders for change, and supports the idea that law must reflect morality since it might otherwise be designed solely for the comfort of the majority. Overall, the discussion of group immorality supports his purpose of encouraging individual action in the face of injustice, and criticizing those who do not support such individual action for fear of upsetting the status quo.
