In "A Jury of Her Peers" Mrs. Hale says, "What a pretty box! I'll warrant that was something she had a long time again-when she

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.

Did people really talk the way Shakespeare wrote? Why or why not? Why did he write the way he did? Provide detail!
yanalaym [24]
It is partially true that people talked the way Shakespeare had wrote. Back then people did not speak in blank verse and since it was a play their speech was exaggerated. However, it is true that people did use vocabulary like “Thy” and “Thine”.

nadezda [96]

Answer:

In the novel Grapes of Wrath, the American Dream has been portrayed as a failed proomise by the author. The characters were able to relate to this failed promise of American Dream when they came to America in search of occupation during the Dust Bowl.

'The Grapes of Wrath' is a novel written by John Steinbeck. The novel narrates the story of Joads and their migration to California in search of work from their homeland Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl.
