Answer:

Life was very difficult for American women in general before and even after the second world war, and the war greatly had an effect on many things. The life of American women was one of the things it change. As the end of the second world war came, life for America women changed for the better, as women became more important and more than just household workers. Women became more important and were more greatly respected and allowed more opportunities thanks to the second world war. In other other words, the life of American women differed before, during, and after the war in the sense that it got better for them and they were treated with new levels of respect as time passed on.

  In the beginning before the war, most women were expected to be 'housewives' or to do jobs that were "woman" like jobs that didn't have to do with physically hard work. This included working as an domestic servant. However, by the 1940s, women were being called by the Armed Forces to aid them. The difference between the beginning and during the war for American women is that once the second world war came, women had more importat job opportunities that allowed them to be seen as more "strong" and "manly".

 The difference between life for American during the war after the war is that it  got better for American women. As during the war, women came to play a large role in the military and gender roles changed, after the war. The women who served during the war led to impact the women afterwards to expect more from their lives, and to make a better name for themselves. Although it didn't happen quickly,  their participation in the war eventually won the recognition of many people and men began to more greatly respect women and bring equality to both sexes. In others words, the years after second world war was not only harder for women as they worked to gain more respect, but was more better, as they found themselves received greater amounts of recognition, respect, and equality as time passed.

Describe Mary Maloney's feelings towards her husband. How do her different actions demonstrate the emotions and feelings that she has for her husband?

Answer: Mary seems to be happy with her husband, at least at the beginning of the story.

Explanation:

Roald Dahl's 'Lamb to the Slaughter' tells a story about Mary Maloney, a pregnant woman who murders her husband Patrick when he announces that he will leave her.

Mary Maloney seems to be satisfied with her marriage, at least at the beginning of the story. As stated in the text, Mary's world seems to be centered around her husband:

"She [...] was content to sit quietly, enjoying his company after the long hours alone in the house."

Mary is portrayed as a woman who loved her husband for different reasons:

"She loved him for the way he sat loosely in a chair, for the way he came in a door, or moved slowly across the room with long strides..."

How is Patrick Maloney, the husband, acting when he arrives home? How is this different from his normal behavior, and what does his strange behavior foreshadow (hint at)?​

Answer: Patrick Maloney drinks heavily when he arrives home. He is not as communicative as he usually is. This behavior foreshadows that he has some news for his wife, which she will not be happy to hear.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is a literary device in which the author gives the readers certain clues about what will happen later in the story.

In "Lamb to the Slaughter", Patrick Maloney returns home and everything seems as usual, until he starts to drink a lot of alcohol. He barely talks to his wife, giving short answers to what Mary says. This behavior indicates that Patrick has certain news to share with his wife, and that he expects that she will not be happy when she hears it. He wants to leave his pregnant wife, and is aware that there is a difficult conversation in front of them.
