Answer:
The option that best describes Madame Loisel is:
C. Madame Loisel changes from an idealistic dreamer to a hardworking woman who shows responsibility.
Explanation:
Madame Loisel is the main character in Guy de Maupassant's short story "The Diamond Necklace". <u>At the beginning of the story, Madame Loisel is a pretty woman who happens to be utterly discontented with her life. She has great taste for fine and rich things, but she is not wealthy. Even though she does live a comfortable life and does not have to work, she wishes things were different.</u>
One night, after a party, she loses a diamond necklace she had borrowed from a wealthy friend. Believing the necklace to be a real one, she buys another to replace it with her husband's help. They end up having to work extremely hard for ten years to pay for it. <u>Madame Loisel goes from being a dreamer to being a hardworking woman. She is no longer concerned with her appearance. Survival is more important now:</u>
<u>"[...] heavy, rough, harsh, like one of the poor. Her hair untended, her skirts askew, her hands red, her voice shrill...."</u>
In the end, the necklace she lost is revealed to have been a fake one.
