The answer is: 2. temptation.

In the excerpt from "A Pair of Silk Stockings," the author Kate Chopin directs attention to Mrs. Sommers desire to spend the money on her own rather than on her children. In that respect, the words used to describe the articles she wishes to purchase have a provocative connotation. For example, <em>soft </em>means gentle, <em>luxurious </em>refers to something extremely elegant and classy, <em>glisten </em>is to shine, and <em>serpent-like</em> implies that the object is smooth to the sense of touch.

Hi. First, you have used the wrong spelling of, "which". A witch is a character  ;)

Okay, back to your question. One example of a flashback in the story, "Borders" is when the mom talks about driving to Salt Lake City to visit her daughter.

If you read the story, you might find some other examples. Hope this helps.

Take care,

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

In the poem 'On the Grasshopper and Cricket', the poet John Keats celebrates the music of the Earth. He finds beauty in hot summer as well as in the cold winter. Here, in this poem, the grasshopper is a symbol of hot summer and cricket is a symbol of cold winter.

The moral of the poem On the Grasshopper and the Cricket is that nature has perseverance as well as patience. It keeps its jovial nature alive even during the harsh weathers i.e. summer and winter. ... The poet is thus trying to show the importance of each and every element of nature.
