She was dressed in rich materials - satins, and lace, and silks - all of white. Her shoes were white. And she had a long white v

eil dependent from her hair, and she had bridal flowers in her hair, but her hair was white. Some bright jewels sparkled on her neck and on her hands, and some other jewels lay sparkling on the table. Dresses, less splendid than the dress she wore, and half-packed trunks, were scattered about. 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 dressing table mirror.

Answer:

It is clear that the writer incorporated descriptive words in order to describe the old woman. Alongside this is the prominent use of imagery, allowing the reader to captivate an image in their mind. The writer's word choice shows that the old woman isn't quite finished with her attire, but that she may be perceived as a delicate, classy woman.

Answer:

4) The narrative will change depending on the narrator's tone and point-of-view.

Explanation:

It is the <em>narrator's role </em>to tell the readers/audiences about what's happening in the story. He/She becomes the<em><u> readers' lens, </u></em>thus, their knowledge will largely rely on what is being narrated.

It is important to carefully pick a narrator when planning to write a narrative. A story can take a first-person perspective wherein the reader will have a deep connection with the main character in the story. However, his point-of-view will only be limited to what that character thinks. It can take the second-person perspective wherein<u><em> the writer or author wants to directly convey his message to the reader.</em></u> Another perspective is the third-person wherein the reader will know everything that is happening in the story. A change in perspective changes the tone of the narrator, as well as his point-of-view. This largely affects the readers'/audiences' understanding.

Not sure about number three in regards to the literary movement; however, i can help you with the last two.

"the collars belonging to the cats" -- there are multiple collars, and multiple cats. the way to represent this is "the cats' collars." you add the apostrophe to the cats, because the multiple cats own the collars.

"the notebooks belonging to Janet" -- here, you have multiple notebooks, but only one janet. the way to show this is "Janet's notebooks." the possessive s is added to janet's name to show that the notebooks are hers. the possessive s or apostrophe would not apply to notebooks, because the notebooks don't own anything. only janet owns something.
