was a girl" when she finds the box in Mrs. Wright's sewing basket.
Which line from the story shows why she would assume that?

a. "Farmers' wives have their hands full, Mr. Henderson.

b. She used to wear pretty clothes and be lively-when she was Minnie Foster, one of the town girls, singing in the choir.

c. I've seen little enough of her of late years. I've not been in this house-it's more than a year.

d. She-come to think of it, she was kind of like a bird herself. Real sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and-fluttery.

Answer: b. She used to wear pretty clothes and be lively-when she was Minnie Foster, one of the town girls, singing in the choir.

Explanation: In this sentence (and several other remarks) we learn something that is, plot-wise, very important about Mrs. Wright's past: she used to have a liveliness in her youth (before marrying) that is now gone and at some point in the last 20 years, she has stopped wearing pretty clothes.

I'm assuming that if she had a pretty box, Mrs. Hale said that based on the fact that She used to wear pretty clothes and be lively - when she was Minnie Foster, one of the town girls, singing in the choir.

According to the author, the word love is inadequate because?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

A: It does not convey to power and immensity of the idea.

Explanation:

The given question refers to the essay <em>Love's Vocabulary</em> by Diane Ackerman.

<em>How can love’s spaciousness be conveyed in the narrow confines of one syllable? </em>-<em> </em>asks the author. She discusses the origin of the word, and how people use it: <em>We use the word love in such a sloppy way that it can mean almost nothing or absolutely everything.</em>

The problem is not that the word <em>love </em>consists of only one syllable, but that such a powerful, diverse feeling is difficult to describe. One word is not enough to convey its power, and the way people use it is not appropriate.

Thus, the correct answer is A.
