Answer:

C. Section 55 - Her mind was still on the ball. His mind was on work the next day.​

Explanation:

As one of Maupassant's themes is the "differences between men and women", we see that option C is the only reference that actually shows the contrast.

The above option which shows the contrast is actually referring to the differences between a man and a woman. In option C, we see that "Her mind was still on the ball" and while "His mind was on work the next day".

The reference tends to show the difference mindsets the man and the woman have.

Any activity that you think that is unusual / out of the norm for kids your age to do during free time?
Dominik [7]

(For reference, I'm 17 and am responding as such)

Cleaning, studying, sporting activites.  

While there are people who do these things, they prove to be on the whole uncommon activities. If these things are being done it is likely they don't consider the time they do these things with 'free time'.

We prefer to relax, be unbothered, and see what's going on on Y0uTube or social media, or just watch TV.
