In this excerpt from Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations, which two sentences suggest that the woman described is in some sort

of transition?
A: She was dressed in rich materials,—satins, and lace, and silks,—all of white.

B: And she had a long white veil dependent from her hair, and she had bridal flowers in her hair, but her hair was white.

C: Dresses, less splendid than the dress she wore, and half-packed trunks, were scattered about.

D: She had not quite finished dressing, for she had but one shoe on,—the other was on the table near her hand,—her veil was but half arranged, her watch and chain were not put on, and some lace for her bosom lay with those trinkets, and with her handkerchief, and gloves, and some flowers, and a Prayer-Book all confusedly heaped about the looking-glass.

Match the generalization about life to thecharacter that makes it.
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The best way to answer this question is by quoting what the characters say or explaining their characterizations.

1. Everyone has troubles: Dr. Gibbs

According to Dr. Gibbs "They'll have a lot of troubles, I suppose, but that's none of our business.  Everybody has a right to their own troubles."

2. All people were meant to get married: Mrs. Gibbs

Mrs. Gibbs is portrayed as a typical housewife whose only duty is to be a good wife and mother. She cleans the house, takes care of the kids and leads a simple life.

3. Gives George the advice his own father gave him on marriage: Mr. Webb

In the following passage, Mr. Webb gives George the advice:

George, I was thinking the other night of some advice my father gave me when I got married. Charles, he said, Charles, start out early showing who's boss, he said. Best thing to do is to give an order, even if it don't make sense; just so she'll learn to obey. And he said: if anything about your wife irritates you…her conversation, or anything…just get up and leave the house. That'll make it clear to her, he said. And, oh, yes! he said never, never let your wife know how much money you have, never."

4. laments that girls are unprepared for marriage: Mrs. Webb

Mrs. Webb states "It came over me at breakfast this morning; there was Emily eating her  breakfast as she's done for seventeen years and now she's going off to eat it in  someone else's house. Oh, I've got to say it: you know, there's something  downright cruel about sending our girls out into marriage this way. I hope  some of her girl friends have told her a thing or two. It's cruel, I know, but I  couldn't bring myself to say anything. I went into it blind as a bat myself."

5. expresses the need for love: Emily

Emily is a romantic idealist that accepts being a submissive wife just because she needs to feel that George loves her. She even represses her feelings for this.

6. expresses the search for happiness: Mrs. Soames

Mrs. Soames constantly looks for happiness, for example, she remembers  how happy she was at Emily´s lovely wedding, she thinks that Emily and George are a great couple, and she agrees with dead Emily that people do not enjoy life.
