Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

This sentece gives the text an element of surprise because it causes a radical twist in the plot that the reader did not foresee.

By revealing that the original necklace was an imitation, the speaker is implying that all of Mathilde's hard work was in vain, surprising both the characters of the story and the readers.

I would say C) "'Oh, my poor Mathilde! But mine was imitation. It was worth at the very most five hundred francs! …'" (Paragraph 14) is the best option.

Based on tone, why is it fitting that "The Lamb" is featured in a volume titled songs of innocence
Margaret [11]
Because a lamb is seen as being innocent. For example would you prefer a lamb or a wolf. When you think of a lamb you think of soft, white, fluffy, cute animal that could do no harm. Innocents.

Read the excerpt from "Daughter of Invention".
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

D. A conflict within society.

Explanation:

The excerpt from "Daughter of Invention" clearly illustrates the conflict within the society as there are sounds of gun blasts and explosions as a consequence of rebelling against the dominance. The silence of the house symbolizes the after-effects and "self-important voices" exemplify the biased and prejudiced opinion of the reporters that implies the clash with the society. Thus, the excerpt depicts the conflict and contradictions lying within society in particular.
