Question 1: ‘The Necklace’ by Guy de Maupassant
What does this passage reveal about the different characters? Support your answer with evidence from this passage.
‘The Necklace’ by Guy de Maupassant
She had no dresses, no jewels, nothing; and these were the only things she loved. She felt she was made for them alone. She wanted so much to charm, to be envied, to be desired and sought after.
She had a rich friend, a former schoolmate at the convent, whom she no longer wanted to visit because she suffered so much when she came home. For whole days afterwards she would weep with sorrow, regret, despair and misery.
One evening her husband came home with an air of triumph, holding a large envelope in his hand.
"Look," he said, "here's something for you."
She tore open the paper and drew out a card, on which was printed the words:
"The Minister of Education and Mme. Georges Rampouneau request the pleasure of M. and Mme. Loisel's company at the Ministry, on the evening of Monday January 18th."
Instead of being delighted, as her husband had hoped, she threw the invitation on the table resentfully, and muttered:
"What do you want me to do with that?"
"But, my dear, I thought you would be pleased. You never go out, and it will be such a lovely occasion! I had awful trouble getting it. Everyone wants to go; it is very exclusive, and they're not giving many invitations to clerks. The whole ministry will be there."
She stared at him angrily, and said, impatiently:
"And what do you expect me to wear if I go?"
He hadn't thought of that. He stammered:
"Why, the dress you go to the theatre in. It seems very nice to me ..."
He stopped, stunned, distressed to see his wife crying. Two large tears ran slowly from the corners of her eyes towards the corners of her mouth. He stuttered:
"What's the matter? What's the matter?"
With great effort she overcame her grief and replied in a calm voice, as she wiped her wet cheeks:
"Nothing. Only I have no dress and so I can't go to this party. Give your invitation to a friend whose wife has better clothes than I do."
He was distraught, but tried again:
"Let's see, Mathilde. How much would a suitable dress cost, one which you could use again on other occasions, something very simple?"

The Book of Dragons
Chapter III The Deliverers of Their Country, an excerpt
By E. Nesbit
It all began with Effie's getting something in her eye. It hurt very much indeed, and it felt something like a red-hot spark—only it seemed to have legs as well, and wings like a fly. Effie rubbed and cried—not real crying, but the kind your eye does all by itself without your being miserable inside your mind—and then she went to her father to have the thing in her eye taken out. Effie's father was a doctor, so of course he knew how to take things out of eyes.
When he had gotten the thing out, he said: "This is very curious." Effie had often got things in her eye before, and her father had always seemed to think it was natural—rather tiresome and naughty perhaps, but still natural. He had never before thought it curious.
Effie stood holding her handkerchief to her eye, and said: "I don't believe it's out." People always say this when they have had something in their eyes.
"Oh, yes—it's out," said the doctor. "Here it is, on the brush. This is very interesting."
Effie had never heard her father say that about anything that she had any share in. She said: "What?"
The doctor carried the brush very carefully across the room, and held the point of it under his microscope—then he twisted the brass screws of the microscope, and looked through the top with one eye.
"Dear me," he said. "Dear, dear me! Four well-developed limbs; a long caudal appendage; five toes, unequal in lengths, almost like one of the Lacertidae, yet there are traces of wings." The creature under his eye wriggled a little in the castor oil, and he went on: "Yes; a bat-like wing. A new specimen, undoubtedly. Effie, run round to the professor and ask him to be kind enough to step in for a few minutes."
"You might give me sixpence, Daddy," said Effie, "because I did bring you the new specimen. I took great care of it inside my eye, and my eye does hurt."
The doctor was so pleased with the new specimen that he gave Effie a shilling, and presently the professor stepped round. He stayed to lunch, and he and the doctor quarreled very happily all the afternoon about the name and the family of the thing that had come out of Effie's eye.
But at teatime another thing happened. Effie's brother Harry fished something out of his tea, which he thought at first was an earwig. He was just getting ready to drop it on the floor, and end its life in the usual way, when it shook itself in the spoon—spread two wet wings, and flopped onto the tablecloth. There it sat, stroking itself with its feet and stretching its wings, and Harry said: "Why, it's a tiny newt!"
The professor leaned forward before the doctor could say a word. "I'll give you half a crown for it, Harry, my lad," he said, speaking very fast; and then he picked it up carefully on his handkerchief.
"It is a new specimen," he said, "and finer than yours, Doctor."
It was a tiny lizard, about half an inch long—with scales and wings.
So now the doctor and the professor each had a specimen, and they were both very pleased. But before long these specimens began to seem less valuable. For the next morning, when the knife-boy was cleaning the doctor's boots, he suddenly dropped the brushes and the boot and the blacking, and screamed out that he was burnt.
And from inside the boot came crawling a lizard as big as a kitten, with large, shiny wings.
"Why," said Effie, "I know what it is. It is a dragon like the one St. George killed."
And Effie was right. That afternoon Towser was bitten in the garden by a dragon about the size of a rabbit, which he had tried to chase, and the next morning all the papers were full of the wonderful "winged lizards" that were appearing all over the country. The papers would not call them dragons, because, of course, no one believes in dragons nowadays—and at any rate the papers were not going to be so silly as to believe in fairy stories. At first there were only a few, but in a week or two the country was simply running alive with dragons of all sizes, and in the air you could sometimes see them as thick as a swarm of bees. They all looked alike except as to size. They were green with scales, and they had four legs and a long tail and great wings like bats' wings, only the wings were a pale, half-transparent yellow, like the gear-boxes on bicycles.
What words best describe the tone set by the narrator in the opening lines? (5 points)
A. Amazed, fearful, sinister
B. Interested, entertained, concerned
C. Peculiar, odd, strange
D. Suspicious, outrageous, funny
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
I used process of elimination.
Answer A doesn't work because there was no "amazed" and "sinister" part in the opening lines.
Answer B doesn't work because "entertained" isn't really an adjective to describe the opening lines.
Answer D doesn't work because there's nothing "funny" about getting something stuck in your eye.
I hope this is correct.

O Laura Bridgman had dressed the doll that Miss
Sullivan gave to Helen.
O After Helen played with her doll, Miss Sullivan
spelled the word "d-o-1-1" into Helen's hand.
O Helen copied Miss Sullivan and made the letters for
doll with her hand,
The morning after my teacher came she led me into her
room and gave me a doll. The little blind children at the
Perkins Institution had sent it and Laura Bridgman had
dressed it; but I did not know this until afterward. When
I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly
spelled into my hand the word "d-0-1-1." I was at once
interested in this finger play and tried to imitate it. When
I finally succeeded in making the letters correctly I was
flushed with childish pleasure and pride. Running
downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made
the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a
word or even that words existed; I was simply making
my fingers go in monkey-like imitation. In the days that
followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way
a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a
few verbs like sit, stand and walk. But my teacher had
been with me several weeks before I understood that
everything has a name.

Just as two colors will, when carefully mixed, form a third and different color (yellow and blue, for example, produce green), so too it is sometimes possible to see in the cooperative efforts of living things a resultant accomplishment that defies description on the basis of the characteristics of the creatures involved. A description of the traits and performances of the individual members of a hive of honeybees or a championship athletic team hardly serves to describe the results of their joint efforts.
