What is Mr. Bennet's attitude toward Catherine and Lydia's behavior?

English

Answer:

The best option seems to be 1. They should continue to socialize with their relatives and with the officers stationed in Meryton.

Explanation:

Mr. Bennet is a character is the novel "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. He is the father of five daughters, Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine (Kitty), and Lydia. His two youngest daughters, Kitty and Lydia, constantly present a foolish behavior. Even though very young, they have already been introduced to society. They attend balls and often walk to the town nearby to socialize with their relatives and friends. Their sole purpose is to find husbands - if handsome ones, even better.

<u>We would expect Mr. Bennet to be against their behavior since, at that time, propriety and decency were most valued.</u> It was very easy for a girl to lose her good reputation in the early 19th century. <u>Yet, we would be mistaken. Mr. Bennet has quite an indolent character, always choosing the path of least resistance. He does not try to prevent his daughters from acting foolish, from socializing with relatives and the officers stationed in Meryton.</u> His permissiveness is what later allows Lydia to make a huge mistake that almost ruins her sisters. Lydia is invited by an officer's wife to accompany them to Bath. Elizabeth quickly goes to her father and asks him to forbid Lydia's trip. He, however, hopes that Lydia will realize her own insignificance upon going to Bath with the others. <u>He dismisses Elizabeth's concerns only to be surprised by Lydia's eloping with Mr. Wickham.</u> At that time, if a girl eloped, she was regarded as sinful, and tainted the reputation of her sisters, preventing them from finding husbands.

sveticcg [70]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

I believe globalization has improved the world around me because it brought about new industries and thereby led to more jobs more jobs. Also there's increase in competition which brought about more efficiency in the market, it also helped in the limiting of military conflicts, and helped in spreading wealth and there are lower-cost ways for the production of goods and helped in the reduction of the prices of goods.

However, a negative effect is that there's unequal economic growth, price instability and currency fluctuation.

Answer: I dwell in possibility by Emily Dickinson:

I dwell in Possibility –

A fairer House than Prose –

More numerous of Windows –

Superior – for Doors –

Of Chambers as the Cedars –

Impregnable of eye –

And for an everlasting Roof

The Gambrels of the Sky –

Of Visitors – the fairest –

For Occupation – This –

The spreading wide my narrow Hands

To gather Paradise –

Do not go gentle into that good night by Dylan Thomas:

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright

Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,

And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight

Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,

Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Someone say.... If I compare my family with metaphor
Ksju [112]
A metaphor would be a figure of speech which makes an implicit or hidden comparison between two things that are unrelated but share common traits. Example: the assignment was a piece of cake (which would mean the assignment was easy) So comparing your family you could say they are a team cause they support you, or tree cause they are your roots I can't think of anything else but you get the idea!
