Read the passage from The Importance of Being Earnest.

Gwendolen. [To Jack.] Darling!

Algernon. [To Cecily.] Darling! [They fall into each other's arms.]

[Enter Merriman. When he enters he coughs loudly, seeing the situation.]

Merriman. Ahem! Ahem! Lady Bracknell!

Jack. Good heavens!

[Enter Lady Bracknell. The couples separate in alarm. Exit Merriman.]

Lady Bracknell. Gwendolen! What does this mean?

In contrast to reading the scene, seeing the staged version of the scene would improve its aesthetic impact by allowing the audience to

A)see a single narrator, thereby adding to the drama.

B)watch the actors' reactions, thereby adding to the humor.

C)witness different characters, thereby adding more tension.

D)view it being told in the past tense, thereby adding excitement.

Answer:

B)watch the actors' reactions, thereby adding to the humor.

Explanation:

The dialogue of the drama is filled with humor and mire as the two lovers are seen by Merriman who has come to announce the arrival of Lady Bracknell.

The entire scene would be more hilarious to viewers who would watch the stage re-enactments because they would see the action, observe the body language of each of the characters and enjoy the humorous scene more thoroughly than reading about it.

In Act I of The Importance of Being Earnest, how do the cucumber sandwiches address elements of Victorian society?
ycow [4]

Explanation:

The victorian era had the division of people into the noble upper class, middle class and the working class.

Algernon's display of cucumber sandwiches was referred to as reckless extravagance in a young person by Jack. But the irony here is that cucumber sandwiches are not even extravagant or reckless to serve at tea. Another is the fact that the lady that the sandwiches were meant for is not even a young person.

We have the hypocrisy of algernon who scolds jack for trying to take a sandwich but yet does so himself. He even ends up eating it all before lady Bracknell arrives. Then he has his servant lie that there were no cucumbers at the market.

The lady's reaction is that of indifference about the sandwiches. A great part of this play explores the consequences of the reckless formalities of society. Jack considered as rash behavior, the formal extravagance of the upper class.
