It would protect his legs from the sticky poison. 2) Was this a comfortable job? Why or why not? How do you think Carter felt about it? It was very uncomfortable because the pants were sticky at first and hardened after a while and it was covered with poison. He felt “terrible” to put them back on in the morning. 3) Why do you think mopping cotton was an important formative experience for Carter? It was hard work and he learned to deal with it from young.

Activity 5 Read Text B and think about how the story is developed. Task 1 Understanding the text Complete the following chronological outline for the text. Include the most important events in it. Add adjectives whenever possible. 1) Mathilde felt sad because she was poor. 2) Mathilde’s husband got a select invitation to a ball_______. 3) Mathilde was irritated about the news. 4) Mathilde’s husband agreed to give her _400 francs to buy a suitable gown____. 5) Matilde borrowed a diamond necklace from her friend. 6) Mathilde was a great success at the night of the ball. 7) She left the ball about four o’clock in the morning_______. 8) Mathilde found that she lost_the diamond necklace________. 9) Mathilde and Loisel bought a diamond necklace, returned it to Madame Forestier _ and had a hard life since then. 10) Ten years later, _Mathilde learned the diamond necklace she had borrowed was not real___. Task 2 Responding to the text Write your answer to each question in full sentences. Then discuss your answers with your partner. 1) Why was Mathilde so unhappy at the beginning of the story? Young and good-looking as she was, she yearned for a luxurious life, but she was married to a government clerk with limited income. Her life was far from her expectations. 2) What was her reaction when she learned of the invitation to the ball? Why? She was frustrated as she did not have a proper gown to wear to the ball. 3) How did her life change due to the loss of the necklace? She and her husband paid 3400 francs for a diamond necklace that she could return it to Madame Forestier. They had to work very hard and lead a miserable life in order to pay off the debts. 4) What was the primary cause of Mathilde’s misfortune in your view? The primary cause of Mathilde’s misfortune is her vanity and desire for a luxurious life. Unsatisfied with her plain life as a clerk’s wife, she was eager to show her beauty at the grand ball, earning admiration from others. 5) How do you judge Mathilda’s behavior from an ethical perspective? Answers may vary. For example, Mathilda was honest because she bought a real diamond necklace when she thought the one she lost was real and she was willing to work hard for ten years to pay off the debt—a high price to pay for her vanity but on the other hand, it showed her courage. Part III: Language Study Activity 7 Read Text A and Text B and note down the words and phrases that show time order.
