English

Answer:

C. The room is a former nursery with bars on its windows, emphasizing her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.

Explanation:

The short story<em> </em><em>"The Yellow Wallpaper"</em> by Charlotte Perkins Gilman is a feminist text which shows the constraints that women faced in their lives especially during the 19th Century. This particular text focus on the mental and physical health of women as regarded right by the 'men' or patriarchal society as a whole.

The room that the narrator and her husband had taken 'for the improvement of her health' is more like a cage. It was at the top of the house, a room with torn and dilapidated wallpaper, which was also a former nursery. It had bars and rings and things. She points out that <em>"the windows are barred for little children"</em>, which is significant for it emphasizes her treatment as a child/ prisoner. She had no control over the diagnosing of her 'illness' nor does she have control over the medicines she's to take. Everything is taken care of by her husband John.

Thus, the room that she and her husband took represents her treatment as a child/prisoner and thus the eventual break from her identity as a sane adult woman.

Write an essay of why gum should be allowed in school?
fomenos
There are many issues that face schools, but one of the main issues is gum. Either way that you look at the problem, their will be both good and bad issues, but the more you look; you can tell that the good issues outweigh the bad. The administrators at most schools only look at the bad parts about gum, and not enough of the good. One problem that occurs when students chew gum is that it ends up under the desk; however, because students have to hide the gum they are chewing, there is no other place to put it. This problem can easily be resolved by letting the students have gum. If people do not have to hide gum, they will not, which would mean that students will put it in the trash. Many administrators say that we do not respect the privilege. If we do not respect the privilege, then they can take gum away, but if there is no problem, why shouldn’t we be able to chew gum? Another great benefit to chewing gum is that the class will be quieter. When you were little you parents always told you never to talk with food in your mouth, and that same concept applies to this dilemma as well. Student’s grade point average will rise because instead of talking to peers, students will be more concentrated on the material being taught. Also, the teacher will be able to get through more material at a faster pace because they will not have to keep telling the students to be quiet.
