The answers are A, C and D.
<u>From the excerpt we can see the woman is exaggerating her movements and actions, which is most clearly seen in the last line "She spoke with great distinctness, moving her lips meticulously, as if in parlance with the deaf."</u>
<u>She is exaggerating her movement of the lips and accenting of the words in order to try to prove what she says and underline its importance, even to hide her real thoughts. </u>
<u>We also see she does this for her own enjoyment and exposure with the line "extended her hand at the length of her arm and held it so for all the world to see, until the Negro took it, shook it, and gave it back to her."</u>
<u>With this she is trying to draw attention to her pleasure, to the man taking her hand, to show how she is graceful and polite, and to better her social status. </u>
I think the answer is “because”. It is explaining why this guy’s job is hard. Hope this helps
Mary is the recipient of ‘Empathy’.
<u>Explanation
:</u>
Empathy means to be in another person’s shoes and try to understand what they are going through.
Empathy is of three kinds – cognitive, emotional and compassionate.
Mary is the recipient of primarily the third kind.
Generally, when someone relates a harrowing experience, he/she expects you not only to understand what you are going through or a similar emotional experience in return. What they expect you to do is to take some action to mitigate the trouble.
Here when Mary relates her tale of distress to her friend, she is compassionate enough to understand what she is going through and in order to make her feel better, she hugs her and showers praise upon her.
It is more sincere than sympathy. She feels sympathy and shows empathy.
I am sure the answer is B.
