To "intend" is to mean to do something. In this context, it could also be replaced with the word "want", as in, "If you want to visit your grandmother, you..". The other words do not make sense with their meaning or tense in the context of the sentence. To "assert" is to force one's dominance over something, to "contend" means to be in competition for, and to "retort" is to reply in a sharp or angry tone. The only word which fits the meaning of wanting to do something, in the future, is "intend".

Read the excerpt from the yellow wallpaper. What does the narrator's description reveal about the social context of the story?

Lilit [14]

Answer:

B. Doctors were believed to be unquestionably all-knowing.

Explanation:

Charlotte Perkins Gillman's short story "The Yellow Wallpaper" revolves around the life of a woman 'diagnosed' with mental illness and the 'treatment' around that sickness. The story delves into the theme of mental illness and how it is perceived by the people, especially in a patriarchal society like the one the narrator is in.

In the given excerpt, the woman, diagnosed with mental illness, states how she was 'treated' for the "temporary nervous depression—a slight hysterical tendency". The physicians, including her own brother, all decide what is the best for her condition, instead of asking her opinion. This shows the lack of women's participation, let alone acceptance of women, in society including the domestic sphere.

Lastly, her revelation shows how doctors or anyone of high standing, were perceived and believed to be unquestionably all-knowing and correct.

Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. To cast in my lot with Jekyll, was to die to those appetites

Otrada [13]

Answer: Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity

Explanation:

The conflict in this excerpt is that Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity.

In this case, if he casted his lot with Jekyll, then he was going to forget about the appetites that he had secretly indulged and on the other hand, if he casted it in with Hyde, he was going to die to a thousand interests and aspirations, and become despised and friendless.
