What does this excerpt from the end of the "the yellow wallpaper" tell the reader
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

I believe that the best answer to the question here: What does this excerpt from the end of "The Yellow Wallpaper" tell the reader, would be, C: The narrator believes the window bars will not allow her to escape.

Explanation:

"The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story by Charlotte Perkins Stetson about a woman who has to spend her entire summer vacation cooped up in a mansion, and particularly an old nursery room papered with yellow wallpaper, with her husband John, his sister and their child. Although at first the woman, who is the narrator, tells us that she despises the wallpaper, as time goes by, and since she is forced to remain where she is, she starts to develop a sort of interest in it as she starts to see that there is much more to the paper than she first thought. Images, and then figures, start to appear, until she is sure she sees a woman´s shape behind the jail-like pattern. At the same time, she starts to see that the woman from the paper also appears on the garden outside, creeping. The appearance of disappearance both in the pattern, or the garden, will depend entirely on the light (sunlight or moonlight), and depending on the reflections on the windows, that woman will turn into many. At the end of the story the narrator and the woman from the pattern become one but they realize they cannot escape, as the windows are barred and cannot be opened. So, it almost seems like she tells herself that even if she had wanted to, she won´t because she cannot open them, it would be misunderstood by others and besides, she could see multiple women out there, creeping, like she did. It almost becomes like the wanderings of a child who knows she cannot get away with what she wanted to do originally, but still gives herself justification for not trying it. That is why the best choice is C.

What advice would you give your 20-something self about intellectual wellness? plz be descriptive
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The ability to open our minds to new ideas and experiences. The desire to learn new concepts, improve skills and seek challenges in pursuit of lifelong learning contributes to our intellectual wellness. Say if you want to be a Doctor, or an Artist. You have to go out and learn those things/requirements to become what you want to be and not what other's say what you shold be. Its all about your own mind set and what you think is best for you, you can go out and even be successful at a young age. All I gotta say is.. . Let your mind be free and reach your top goals, if something gets in your way you have to power through them. And keep on going.

This refers to the characteristics and qualities of a person that forms their character.

Hence, we can see that based on the complete text, there is the narration of the personality of the protagonist's mother and how she reacts in a distinctive way after their home was robbed.

The narrator comes home from school and finds her mom who has a rigid personality with two policemen and then she announces in a shout that their house has been robbed.
