Answer:
The correct option is "The place was now almost deserted...". This portion foreshadows the symbolic loneliness of the music club.
Explanation:
The selected choice above contains the words "deserted" and "loneliness," which have nearly identical meanings.
When a location is devoid of people, it is said to be deserted.
When a location is empty or is not visited by people, it is said to be lonely.
According to the preceding viewpoint, both "deserted" and "loneliness" have identical meanings.
Therefore, the correct option is "The place was now almost deserted...". This portion foreshadows the symbolic loneliness of the music club.
Anton Chekhov conceived of this play, which turned out to be his last, as a comedy,designating it “A Comedy in Four Acts” and even emphasizing to the Moscow Art Theatre that the last act should be “merry and frivolous.” He suggested that some portions were even farcical. Nevertheless, most interpretations and theatrical productions have emphasized its tragic aspects. It is understandable why the playwright’s intentions have been largely disregarded; the subject is a serious and depressing one including the family’s loss of their ancestral home and removal from it and other sad developments as well. The destruction of the orchard also represents the destruction of illusions—sad, to be sure, but perhaps hopeful.
Thus, as the inevitable change in society with the dawning of the 20th Century comes, the play represents this time period and portrays an end of an aristocratic era with both tragic and comic elements. The play is best characterized as a tragicomedy.
