Answer:
Characterization
Explanation:
In this excerpt, the author develops the characterization of the Lin family by revealing that they followed Chinese traditions and their usual methods of cooking and eating. This literary device consists of developing fictional characters in a story by revealing characters' physical appearance, personality, interests, or motifs in a direct way, for example, by making straightforward statements about a character's personality or traits, or in an indirect way, by revealing a character's personality through the description of their habits, relationships, dialogues, etc.
Answer
One of the central themes of "The Necklace" is that of appearance vs. reality. For Mathilde, the necklace symbolizes wealth, beauty, and, ultimately, shame, as she loses the necklace and goes into debt to replace it. The great irony of the story is that the necklace was a fake. Mathilde spends ten years in debt, effectively ruining her life over nothing.
The italicized word is <em>extremely </em>and the correct answer is intensive.
The word extremely is an adverb, which means that you can rule out <em>noun, adjective, </em>and <em>verb </em>immediately. You can also rule out <em>empty word </em>because <em>extremely </em>has a particular meaning on its own, which means that it cannot be empty. Thus, we are left with one option only - <em />intensive.
First you must know what a pronoun is.. here are some examples:
I, me, he, she, herself, you, it, that, they, each, few, many, who, whoever, whose, someone, everyone, etc.
In this sentence you see only one pronoun, at the end of the sentence, "hers."
You may already know this, but possessive means "in possession of" and the word "hers" in this sentence means that she is in possession of the pasta with the grilled chicken on it.
I hope I helped! (:
