English 10 A

Unit 7 Lesson 2

Read the following sentences from "Day of the butterfly's"
Our teacher a cold gentle girl, who wore glasses with the gold rims and in the stiff solicitude of certain poses resembled a giraffe, wrote something on a piece of paper and showed it to Myra. And Myra recited uncertainly. "My Brother has had an accident, please, teacher."

After reading these sentences the reader can most likely conclude that:

A. the narrator admires her teacher
B. the teacher has had a proper upbringing
C. Myra does not normally use good manner
D. the narrator is on friendly terms with Myra

Answer 1

Answer: has to be D

Explanation: No other option makes sense

Answer 2

C. Myra does not normally use good manner is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Day of the butterfly is a short story written by Nobel Prize winner Alice Munro, and it tells the story of Myra and her brother, Jimmy, and their difficulties to develop themselves.

The excerpt belongs to the very beginning of the story, where the narrator says that Jimmy couldn't go to the bathroom himself and needed his sister. This would cause some problems (like Jimmy wetting his pants) and the note is written after Myra said in front of her class that her brother had wet his pants as it was. The teacher shows her a different, less straight form to express the same idea.
