Question

(MC) from "Was it a Dream?" by Guy de Maupassant

Answer 1

This text reflects the passage as a whole when the narrator illustrates anger at the woman by avoiding names. Through the use of parallelism, clear order, and repetition, coherence and unity are both successfully attained in “Was it a Dream?”. The story’s theme shows blind flattery to someone wherein the glorification of their image from ignorance results in the loss of truth.

Answer 2

Answer:

A. Presenting the events in order keeps the reader from learning too much at the beginning.

Explanation:

This is most likely why the author decided to present the events in order. In this story, we learn about all the events of the story at the same time as the author learns about them himself. At the beginning, we have no reason to doubt the woman who has passed away. However, towards the end of the story, we learn about her betrayal. This plot twist is only possible because the episodic nature of the narrative keep the reader from learning too much at the beginning.
