The correct one for me is B-  Mrs. X seems to be more experienced or showing the main things for her in life. It's possible that Miss Y hasn't got any children and also may have no idea about theatre or plays. It may be possible that she's not married or she may  not have her own home due to  the despcription  starting: "Home is the best of all,..."

Answer:

D. It’s sinful to sit here and make fun of ones husband this way when he is kind and a good little man.”

Explanation:

"The Stronger" by August Stridnberg is a play in one scene. The play is a monologue by Mrs. X, who is talking to Miss Y. Miss Y was the former lover of Mrs. X's husband, and Mrs. X is telling the story of how this affected her. Throughout the play, it is difficult to establish which one of the two women is "the stronger." In this case, the line establishes that Mrs. X feels superior because she refers to Miss Y's husband as "good little man" which sounds very patronizing. She also tells Miss Y what is sinful and how she ought to behave.

What is a difference between Gertrude's description of Ophelia's drowning and the painting of the same scene? A) There is nothin
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

C) She looks peaceful and serene in the painting, but the play says she met a "muddy death."

Explanation:

In William Shakespeare's <em>Hamlet</em>, Ophelia is the daughter of Polonius and the sister of Laertes, and also the lover of Hamlet. She became insane after the death of her father and the loss of Hamlet who has also seemingly become insane due to his grief of his own father's death.

Act IV scene vii of the play shows Gertrude bringing the news of Ophelia's death to Laertes. And while describing the drowning scene of Ophelia, Gertrude mentions that she was<em> "clambering to hang"</em> the flowery wreaths on a branch of a tree when it gave way and she was dumped into the brook. She was then pulled further into the water when <em>"her garments, heavy with their drink,  Pulled the poor wretch from her melodious lay  To muddy death."</em> This shows a rather unsettling and painful death.

On the contrary, the painting of Ophelia's death by Sir John Everett Millais, a British artist, shows her peacefully floating on the water with flowers around her. Her eyes were slightly open and a calm expression on her face, with hardly any sign of pain in it.
