Question

How do Hattie and Lida differ? A. Hattie is good-natured; Lida is stoic. B. Hattie is trusting; Lida is circumspect. C. Hattie is carefree; Lida is responsible. D. Hattie is respectful; Lida is judgmental. E. Hattie is excited about the party; Lida is ambivalent about it.

Answer 1

Answer:

its c

when Lida had something to do, she didn’t rest until it was

done. The reader can infer from this that Lida is responsible. Hattie, in contrast, walks into the hotel through the parlor doors, even though she had been told not to. When scolded, Hattie tells Lida, “You worry too much.” The reader can infer from this that Hattie does not worry as much as Lida. Later,

Hattie is determined to take the train tracks to save time, while Lida worries that this way is too dangerous. The reader can infer from this that Hattie is carefree—even careless. Therefore c is correct.
