<u>From the excerpt we can see the woman is exaggerating her movements and actions, which is most clearly seen in the last line "She spoke with great distinctness, moving her lips meticulously, as if in parlance with the deaf."</u>
<u>She is exaggerating her movement of the lips and accenting of the words in order to try to prove what she says and underline its importance, even to hide her real thoughts. </u>
<u>We also see she does this for her own enjoyment and exposure with the line "extended her hand at the length of her arm and held it so for all the world to see, until the Negro took it, shook it, and gave it back to her."</u>
<u>With this she is trying to draw attention to her pleasure, to the man taking her hand, to show how she is graceful and polite, and to better her social status. </u>
