Answer 1

Answer:

An awareness of Mrs. Hall's inner thoughts are revealed in the below two sentences:

1. "The stranger did not go to church, and indeed made no difference between Sunday and the irreligious days, even in costume."

2. "On others he would rise late, pace his room, fretting audibly for hours together, smoke, sleep in the armchair by the fire."

Explanation:

Mrs Hall and her husband, Mr. Hall live in Iping and they both run the Coach and Horses Inn. Mrs. Hall is a decent and polite woman who allows Griffin to stay in her house when he promises to pay her more money for his stay. On this perspective, one may arguably see her as being greedy or a good business woman. She fatefully ignores and overlooks Griffin's strange behavior even though she her a growing thought on the happenings around her in relation to Griffin. As she prides herself to be non-superstitious, she dismisses all the warning signs and thoughts about Griffin's invisibility. She only believed he was actually invisible after he reveals it to her himself.

"The Invisible Man" is a novel by H.G Wells. It's a science-fiction novel published in 1897. The novel reveals the life and death of Griffin, a scientist who learned to make himself invisible. He uses his invisibility to commit and perpetrate nefarious activity including murder.
