According to Liza, why are "ladies" cleaner than commoners? Poor people have no reason to bathe. Poor people think that bathing

too much makes you sick. Poor people do not have the luxuries that make bathing pleasant. Proper bathing habits come with education, and poor people can't afford it.

According to Liza, "ladies" are cleaner than commoners because poor people do not have the luxuries that make bathing pleasant.

Liza says: "I tell you, it's easy to clean up here. Hot and cold water on tap, just as much as you like, there is. Woolly towels, there is; and a towel horse so hot, it burns your fingers. Soft brushes to scrub yourself, and a wooden bowl of soap smelling like primroses. Now I know why ladies is so clean. Washing's a treat for them. Wish they saw what it is for the like of me!"

This quote clearly states that, before the bath she was given by Higgins' housekeeper, bathing for her was not such a pleasant activity (probably she bathed with cold water and unscented sopa, if any.)

Read the passage.
kolezko [41]

The correct answer is A.

In this passage, the author creates suspense by describing a mysterious physical situation that could be a deadly trap. He is close to the edge of a large pit, so close that much of his head is hanging off the side. Poe creates suspense by the fact that the narrator close to the edge of a very deep pit.

Unpleasant details add to the sensory impact of the excerpt, but not its suspense. Furthermore, the narrator is confused in this excerpt, but not really fearful. He doesn't know enough about his current sitatuation to be afraid. Finally, the narrator becomes very quickly aware of the danger he's in -- he quickly realizes most of his head is hanging off the edge of the pit, a great danger indeed.

Therefore, Poe creates suspense by describing a mysterious physical situation that could be a deadly trap for the narrator.
