Answer:
Read the fourth and last sentence.
Explanation:
When reading a paragraph, the topic sentence or the thesis statement is the all-embracing statement that captures the main details or major points being projected by the author. Supporting details help the reader to easily identify the main point.
These supporting details that serve as clues to the topic of the paragraph can be found when the reader;
1. Reads the first and last sentences.
2. Search for words and ideas that were repeated by the author, and
3. Deduces inferences that were made by the writer.
Answer:
B. the desire of Mr. Archer to marry May quickly
D. the party’s nervousness about meeting Countess Olenska
Explanation:
So, for the quick summary of this excerpt, May and Mr. Archer are engaged and soon to be married. They, along with Mrs. Welland, May's mother, come to visit May's grandmother, old Mrs. Mingott, the family matriarch, in order to show her the engagement ring and ask for her permission to marry as soon as possible.
Before arriving at Mrs. Mingott's, they were worried about meeting Countess Olenska, May's cousin, a woman whose behaviour and life choices weren't acceptable by the upper class of society this family belonged to.
So, we can see the conflict in nervousness about meeting the Countess, but there is also the conflict of Mr. Archer wanting to marry May as quickly as possible (the very reason the came to Mrs. Mingott).
