Question

What is the outcome of the story, "The Lady, or the Tiger?"

A) The princess’s lover is married to the lady behind the door

B) The princess’s lover escapes the arena

C) The princess’s lover is devoured by the tiger

D) The ending is ambiguous

E) The princess’s lover is not devoured by the tiger

Answer 1

D) The ending is ambiguous

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not known whether the princess's lover opened the door to be devoured by the tiger or the door to the lady he shall wed.

The narrator lets the reader interpret how the story ends with questions such as, "Now, the point of the story is this: Did the tiger come out of that door, or did the lady?" and "And so I leave it with all of you: Which came out of the opened door, --the lady, or the tiger?"

I hope this helped :)
