The answer is B. Mrs. Mallard loved her husband, but she is happy that she is free. Back then women were like possessions to their husbands. The wives stayed home to clean the house and take care of the children. When the husband came home the wife was to serve the husband. Wives were no different than maids back then to their husband. Mrs. Mallard did love her husband which is why she was trying to beat it back. However, above all she was free from the "possession of her husband" so she was free. I hope this helps and I hope you understand. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments. Have a nice day!
Answer:
C). Nature is beautiful, calming, and inspiring.
Explanation:
Thoreau's "Solitude" primarily throws light upon the idea of 'solitude or isolation' actually being an opportunity where one can experience self-communion and contemplation/introspection.'
In this excerpt, Thoreau discusses a 'delicious evening' which he spent in the lap of nature, 'a part of herself.' He considers the nature to be 'beautiful, soothing, and inspiring' as reflected by the descriptions 'elements are unusually congenial to me', 'bullfrogs usher in the night...water', 'pleasantest hours', 'ssothed by seaseless roar', 'twililight usher..', 'tempted' , etc. reflect that how he is in union with the every bit of nature and thus, questions 'why should I feel lonely.' This justifies the above deduction and hence, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
Answer:
Authors choice of words give a emotional effect to the reader.
Explanation:
Remember that diction is the authors choice of words or phrases he/she uses in a story. In this case the author using certain words and phrases can give a emotional effect to the reader because if you use terms that are serious it will give off a serious tone but if you are trying to come off as serious but using terms or phrases that don't go with that tone you are trying to give off, it might give the reader a different emotional effect that you weren't trying to give.
Hope this helps.
