Answer:
The statement that best explains how Madame Loisel changes over time is:
<u>A. She is a beautiful, young woman who becomes a haggard old woman.</u>
Explanation:
At the beginning of the story "The Diamond Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant, Madame Loisel is described as "one of those pretty and charming young creatures who sometimes are born, as if by a slip of fate, into a family of clerks." She is young, beautiful, has good taste for clothes and furniture, and is utterly discontented with her life. Her youth and beauty are not enough. She wishes she were rich.
As the story progresses, Madame Loisel borrows a necklace from a friend. She wears it to a party, to which she had initially refused to go because she believed she had nothing fancy enough to wear. Back from the party, she realizes she has lost the necklace. Thinking it is made of real diamonds, and too proud to tell her friend about it, Madame Loisel buys another one to replace it.
She and her husband have to work way too hard to pay for the debt of buying such an expensive piece of jewelry. The hard work takes its toll on her, making her "heavy, rough, harsh, like one of the poor. Her hair untended, her skirts askew, her hands red, her voice shrill...." She goes from young and beautiful to haggard. In the end, when she finally tells her friend about it, Madame Loisel is told that the necklace was fake. All that time, she had been paying for her own pride.
It should be none of them unless they're at the beginning of the sentence
A significant figure in the Arthurian mythos, Sir Gawain was famed amongst the Knights of the Round Table as a quick-tempered and lusty warrior whose martial prowess was only equalled by his sexual one. In the medieval poem Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, however, this reputation is given a thorough test.
This particular piece of poetry only has one extant manuscript, housed in the British Library and illustrated with scenes from the tale. It is a key part of the medieval development of Arthurian literature, as it details the background to the courtly existence at Camelot, and as such extends the range of the legend instead of merely rehashing a previous tale. It was written by an anonymous poet in a style peculiar to the Middle English of a Northern tradition, as it has been crafted with much emphasis on alliteration1. It is written in 'fits', and each verse has a 'bob-and-wheel' structure. This means that each stanza ends with one short line (the 'bob') and four slightly longer ones (the 'wheel').
