Which of the following statements best illustrate(s) the character traits of Jacques? Select all that apply. He kissed her face

and her hair, and, weeping, he murmured: "Do not be uneasy; I will stay." When he was near her he would become silent, unable to speak or even to think, with a kind of throbbing at his heart, and a buzzing in his ears, and a bewilderment in his mind. He wished to speak, but found nothing to say, and so sat there, expressing all his ardor by pressures of the hand. From time to time he would murmur: "Berthe!" Powerless to lift her head, she held out her white lips in an appeal for a kiss. He approached his lips to respond to this piteous entreaty.

This is taken from the short story written by Guy de Maupassant, called "The Wedding  Gift".

He kissed her face and her hair, and, weeping, he murmured: "Do not be uneasy; I will stay." When he was near her he would become silent, unable to speak or even to think, with a kind of throbbing at his heart, and a buzzing in his ears, and a bewilderment in his mind.

This illustrates how Jacques Bourdillere was head over heals in love with his new love Berthe, whom he got married to, but he still had feelings for his long time lover, who had a baby boy with him and died after giving birth to their son. He was gentle and loving and forgiving on her deathbed and promised to take care of their son, which he brought home to his lovely new wife as a 'wedding gift'. The first part of the statement is when he was on his lover's deathbed, and the second part is when he was with his wife, madly in love and not knowing what to say to her.

Answer:

A sample essay on birthday celebration of my friend.

Last week, it was my best friend’s birthday. So we all planned a nice birthday party. He asked all of us to come to his house three days before his birthday. It was supposed to be a small tea-party with a few friends and family members. As he is the eldest in the family, he asked me to come and help him with the preparations. A day before, we went to the market and brought the necessary decoration articles. We decided for a few minutes on the food and other things with my friend’s father. We also ordered for the cake from the bakery his father asked us to.

We both were really excited, as my friend was turning 16 this year. I decided to go straight at his place after school to help him with the decorations. I had already kept my clothes there, so dressing up was no problem. Both Uncle and Aunty are working, so they too were very glad and relieved with me there to help their son prepare for his birthday party.

One our way back home from school, we collected the cake and the eatables that we had ordered the day before. Then we hurried back home. We quickly had our lunch and headed for the drawing-room. We changed the table-cloth, cleaned the room and started with the decorations.

We decorated the ceiling with paper buntings, bells and stars. We below balloons and hung them all over. Doing that was great fun as some of the balloons bursted while blowing and others refused to stick to the wall. For our siblings, we had kept a few birthday caps. While I was blowing the balloons my friend quickly wrapped the return-gifts. We placed floating candles on the table where the cake would be kept and then put an extra table to keep the eatables.

Next we spread out the disposable cups, glasses and plates. The snacks were laid out in the dishes. The sweets and the samosas were kept in the kitchen along with the chutney. The wafers were kept on the table itself. Cold drinks were kept in the refrigerator. Almost everything was ready by 3:30 p.m.

The party had to start at 4p.m my friend’s mother had also returned by then. She was very happy to see our work and asked us not to worry about the gulab-jamuns and samosas. She would serve them hot from the microwave.

Lastly, we placed a few extra chairs and dressed up quickly. The friends started pouring in as the time neared. By 4:20 p.m., all had reached. We decided to play a few games first so that by then Uncle could also return from his office and be there with us as the cake was cut. We played housie and musical chairs. It was a great fun. The winners were given small prizes too. All were glad and seemed to enjoy.

By 5:30 p.m., my friend’s father had also returned back. So at 5:45 p.m., we had the cutting of the cake amidst a lot of clappings and singing of the birthday song. Aunty had brought in the cake beautifully placed in a lovely platter and the knife too had a bow tied to it. My friend proudly blew out the 17 candles, made a wish and cut the cake. He then gave the first piece to his parents and then the cake was served to all the guests present. The gifts too were given at this time. Uncle was busy clicking the photographs and the cake looked beautiful with the floating candles, fresh flowers and soft music.

The snacks were served after this. Aunty brought in the hot and relishing samosas and gulab-jamuns. I helped Aunty to serve the eatables in the paper-plates. Meanwhile my friend and his younger brother served cold drinks in the glasses. Another of the friend put in some nice dancing music. We all ate with great joy and later on danced till we all could stand no more. It seemed we had rocked the entire colony. We also served toffees to the younger brothers and sisters of our friends. They too had great fun. At around 6:30 pm, we all decided to leave. We thanked my friend and his parents for a wonderful birthday party and went back home, all contended and glad.

please give me brainliest. Thank you!

I believe that the answer could be absolutely anything, if so then “extreme” and words similar to it could fit there.
