Read the excerpt below and answer the question. The old lady settled herself comfortably, removing her white cotton gloves and p

utting them up with her purse on the shelf in front of the back window. The children's mother still had on slacks and still had her head tied up in a green kerchief, but the grandmother had on a navy blue straw sailor hat with a bunch of white violets on the brim and a navy blue dress with a small white dot in the print. Her collars and cuffs were white organdy trimmed with lace and at her neckline she had pinned a purple spray of cloth violets containing a sachet. In case of an accident, anyone seeing her dead on the highway would know at once that she was a lady. O'Connor's word choice and diction in this excerpt from "A Good Man is Hard to Find," suggest that the grandmother is _____. deeply religious very concerned about appearance stern and serious decent and caring

very concerned about appearance

The excerpt describes the grandmother's appearance. She is described as having white gloves, a navy blue dress trimmed with lace, and a sailor hat with a bunch of violets. She is compared to the mother to show that her way of dressing is different than what is required of her visit because the mother is dressed in slacks and has her hair up in a kerchief. It goes on to say that the grandmother would be easily identified as a lady if she was found on the side of the road. This label of being a lady seems to be important and only communicated through appearance.

“Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God….” What is the BEST meaning of impious as Paine
r-ruslan [8.4K]
I would say the correct answer is B. immoral.
The word impious means that you aren't showing respect to God, the respect he deserves. So when you are impious, it means you are disrespectful towards God, meaning you are acting in an immoral way, because God is the epitome of morality and everything good.

Arlecino [84]
I'd say C, Illegal, Unlawful. They are both wrong, and illegal basically means against the law, therefore, they are the same. I hope this helps!
