Question

In Guy de Maupassant’s short story "The Necklace," in what two ways do the characters affect the plot of the story?

1.Madame Loisel’s actions propel the story forward.
2.Madame Forestier’s wishes move the story forward.
3.The actions of the Loisels’ maid lead to the resolution.
4.Madame Forestier’s revelation about the necklace resolves the plot.

Answer 1

1 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The way Madame Loisel reacts to losing the necklace is rash. She spends her entire fortune and then some to replace a necklace that is fake. This brings me to point four, the revelation about the necklace being fake is ironic at best and dreadful at worst. This changes the meaning of the plot.
