Answer:
Option C: The real tree is more detailed and smells fresher than the plastic trees that line the streets.
Explanation:
The entire story talks about the superiority, beauty and realness of the real trees in contrast with the inferiority and artificiality of the plastic trees. So the main theme of the story is summed up in option C, i.e. "The real tree is more detailed and smells fresher than the plastic trees that line the streets."
Option A is not correct because this idea does not run throughout the story; it is mentioned in just one line and is just cause of the disappearance of real trees.
Option B is incorrect because, it is just an incident in the story not a theme or idea of the whole story.
Option D is incorrect because it is part of the setting of the story with no theme in it.
Answer:
B) We would know Mrs. Mallard's thoughts about her husband's death.
Explanation:
The given story is written from the third-person point of view. We can recognize this type of narrative by the use of pronouns<em> he, she, it, </em>and <em>they</em>. It feels as if the narrator is a person observing what is going on and telling us about it.
The first-person point of view is the one told from the first person. We can recognize this by the use of pronouns <em>I </em>and <em>we</em>. The narrator is one of the characters from the story, usually the main character.
If Mrs. Mallard was the narrator, we would know her thoughts about her husband's death. We would be looking at the events that take place around her through her eyes. We would know what she is thinking about and how exactly she is feeling. This is the effect of the first-person narrative.
the correct answer is d because a b
c and e all have either : or ; in it
