Which sentence in this excerpt from Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" suggests that despite her growing insanity

, the narrator still retains some awareness of what society expects of her?
I tried to lift and push it until I was lame, and then I got so angry I bit off a little piece at one corner—but it hurt my teeth.

Then I peeled off all the paper I could reach standing on the floor. It sticks horribly and the pattern just enjoys it! All those strangled heads and bulbous eyes and waddling fungus growths just shriek with derision!

I am getting angry enough to do something desperate. To jump out of the window would be admirable exercise, but the bars are too strong even to try.

Besides I wouldn't do it. Of course not. I know well enough that a step like that is improper and might be misconstrued.

I don't like to look out of the windows even—there are so many of those creeping women, and they creep so fast.

“A quilt of a country” is best described as what kind of text?
Mashutka [201]

The correct option is 2)Argumentative: In an argumentative text you discuss a subject or problem from different perspectives. At this time, Anna Quindlen the author of "A quilt of a country" states that although the great diversity found in America creates a lot of problems in the cities, it also serves as a quality to make America more special, and for this she uses a literature metaphor: Quilt, to put into other perspective her intention in the text. Although the author recurs to real episodes happend in America It's not autobiografical because doesn't talk about a particular person's life. It's not fictional because most of information is based on real facts, although uses literature metaphors to make the idea clearer.

can someone help me understand this quote: “such a person who neither is superior (to us) in virtue and justice, nor undergoes a
insens350 [35]
I think perhaps the quote is referring to the fact that we don't always gain recognition for our actions? Someone of equal status and beliefs could stumble upon the lottery of life just by simply being there, or an error, while we remain unrecognized and alone? <span />
