Cause she is scare and worried Betty might actually die
Answer:
1. I expected the play to end with some philosophical or moral message, as it actually ended, as it shows that alienation, paranoia and panic make people easy targets to manipulate.
2. I thought that there were no aliens when at the beginning of the play, where the neighborhood was affected by factors that can happen normally, such as the drop in electricity supply, the existence of introverted people and problems with cars and phones.
3. I believed that aliens existed when the shadow that took over the city appeared and when the aliens did appear.
Explanation:
"The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" tells the story of a city that had several problems with electricity supply and telephone and television signals, after a giant shadow overtook the city and a very strong flash was seen by all. Cars also began to malfunction, leaving all residents concerned. The townspeople started to think that this was caused by aliens and started to distrust each other, thinking that the neighbors were beings from another planet. This caused great hysteria and paranoia in everyone, driving the city into complete chaos. In the end we learned that the shadow and the malfunction of things were being caused by aliens themselves, who were trying to discover how panic and paranoia allowed human beings to be manipulated.
Explanation:
<u>"The Story of an Hour," is a short story written by Kate Chopin (1894).</u>
This story is about a woman Mrs. Mallard who found out that her husband is dead. She was sad at first, but then she felt happy. She didn't fear the death of her husband, but she was filled with glee and joy. Later, she found out her husband is alive, and she died from heart disease.
As for your questions:
What is it?
<u>At the beginning of the 8th paragraph, Mrs. Mallard senses </u><em><u>“something coming to her.”</u></em><u> This something was freedom - </u><em><u>"She said it over and over under the breath: "free, free, free!"</u></em>
What effect physically does it have on her?
Mrs. Mallard felt she was free from her husband, she enjoyed the imagining herself in control of her life; it was her reaction after being freed from marriage. But when she found out that her husband is alive, her heart could not stand it. Mrs. Mallard had a sense of freedom for an hour, but that was taken away from her, her heart was unable to lose freedom again, and she died.
