But Laura had gotten used to the life here. She did not want to go back to the old country where, de la Torre or not, she was on

ly a wife and a mother (and a failed one at that, since she had never provided the required son). Better an independent nobody than a high-class house slave. She did not come straight out and disagree with her husband's plans. Instead, she fussed with him about reading the papers in bed, soiling their sheets with those poorly printed, foreign tabloids. "The Times is not that bad!" she'd claim if her husband tried to humor her by saying they shared the same dirty habit.
How do Laura’s interactions with her husband reveal the conflict she experiences?


She becomes an independent nobody and decides to reject her role as a high-class housewife and mother.

She reads the newspapers with her husband to keep up on Dominican politics and plans a return to their homeland.

Instead of getting used to her new life in America, she secretly hopes that her husband will return the family to the Dominican Republic.

Instead of openly disagreeing with her husband’s desire to return to the Dominican Republic, she criticizes the foreign papers he reads

Answer:

Laura’s interactions with her husband reveal the conflict she experiences because she "Instead of openly disagreeing with her husband's desire to return to the Dominican Republic, she criticizes the foreign papers he reads."

Explanation:

This excerpt from "daughter of invention" by Julia Alvarez shows how Laura tries to express her opinion and point of view about their situation in an indirect way, this is done with the lines "She did not come straight out and disagree with her husband's plans. Instead, she fussed with him about reading the papers in bed", by doing this, she subtly disagrees with her husband.

How was feminism shown in the poem the man from snowy river
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Feminism is shown in the poem "The man from snowy river" when Jessica was unable to constantly stay in the house and learn to serve as a lady, She wants more than just tea parties or shoe shining like the typical women in the poem but she wants to work with the men.

Explanation:

Jessica believes she has the ability to work like a man can and that she is equal to them, for instance she wanted to work in the barn like the men, but her father disapproves of that and instead drags her out of the barn and told her to follow the conventional path like the women there.

Her father Harrison tells her that working in the barn is not an occupation for a lady and that she should think of marriage, but Jessica did not bow down to her father's will but instead argues with him on the ground of equality depicting feminism in the poem.
