Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
On the day Janet was scheduled to give her speech, her class was relocated into an auditorium. Janet couldn't quite overcome the feeling of isolation she felt as she spoke to her twenty classmates in a room that could seat 500. Which of the following elements is most responsible for Janet's reaction?
A) Feedback
B) Context
C) Information source
D) Channel
Answer:
The best answer is letter B) Context
Explanation:
The context of a speech involves several aspects, such as the place and time, the purpose, the traits of the audience, how big the audience and the place are, what types of technology will be used etc. From what was explained in the question, Janet's speech had a sudden change in context that impacted Janet negatively. She was prepared to speak to 20 people, quite an "intimate" audience. She probably rehearsed her speech having in mind a smaller room, maybe not even considering the use of a microphone. When she was asked to speak at a room that could seat 500, the whole context change. She felt isolated, surrounded by emptiness instead of the warmth of 20 people in a smaller room. She probably had to speak louder or use a microphone. The change in context was so big that it interfered with Janet's previous preparation and caused her to react negatively.
Answer:
Out of anger at the end of the story, she reminds her husband the he was the one who invited to stranger into their home. Arguably he was the one who forced both of them to finally acknowledge what truly did happen when they were all still alive in that house years ago, all of the anger, all of the abuse, and perhaps even death. And now because of the stranger’s visit, they are reminded of this hellish limbo they must endure for an eternity. Joyce Carol Oates certainly seems to offer enough evidence in this Gothic tale for the reader to arrive at this conclusion. She skillfully creates a bleak setting including actual and implied violent incidents and characters in psychological torment, not only the supernatural ghostly visitor but also the couple who are reminded of who they truly were and what they are now. Oates says that “Horror is a fact of life” only one of many facets of life. With horror, Oates seems to be addressing a larger social issue in this story, which can serve as an indictment of violent relationships and having to live with the consequences of your actions, just as these people have been relegated to their own hell for an eternity to reflect on their actions.
Hope this helps you. Do mark me as brainliest.
Okonkwo's thinking and compression about femininity and the way he interacts and lives with women is not much different, as he has a strong opinion about it and believes that women should act in the way his concepts were settled down. In the same way, he believes that femininity is what he has established in his thinking and believes that it is right.
For Okonkwo, femininity imposes that those who have it are weak, inferior, childish, emotional, unable to be independent and mentally inefficient. Women are the greatest holders of femininity, so for Okonkwo all women (and men with characteristics that he considered female) should live in a submissive way and do what men, full of masculinity, believed that should be done.
