Answer:

While her mother suggests the green taffeta dress hanging in her closet, Elenita decides by herself and wears something else, which is considered inappropriate for New year's celebration though.

Thereby (C.)

Explanation:

Elenita's internal conflict is to find her independent identity, even though she still feels deeply connected to her family, and wearing inappropriate clothes is a way to trace her independence, and define who she is.

I need help on Explaining why attendance is not the best choice for this picture ?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Accountable is best choice

Explanation:

The man depicted is being pointed as as if he did something wrong, like how how elementary schoolers will point and say "______ DID IT!"

Attendance means to see who is present at a meeting, event, or any sort of group. Accountable is to be held accountable for a crime or wrong-doing. The man looks visibly confused, guilty, and/or unhappy. Attendance doesn't make sense.

Answer:

B. The world focuses too much on outward appearances; one shouldn't try to live up to others' expectations.

Explanation:

T. S. Eliot's poem "The Love Songs of J. Alfred Prufrock" deals with the sadness and aloofness of a person amidst the 'busy' lifestyle of the new technological age. This dramatic monologue also involves the speaker Prufrock's inner thoughts at trying to reveal/ declare his inner feelings to his lady love but is unable to do so for his feeling of inferiority overtakes him.

The given lines show how men judge one another despite the achievements that the man may have. They will always find fault with one thing or another, like when Prufrock states <em>"My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,  My necktie rich and modest, but asserted by a simple pin"</em> is overshadowed by their observation of how thin his arms and legs are. This shows how <u>the world chose to focus on outward appearances</u>, which the speaker tries to play down and rather focus on not what they say, or try to live up to that expectation. Rather, <u>one must live as one sees fit, ignoring others' expectations of what we should be. </u>
